Video Summary

In the highly anticipated Week 5 matchup between Clemson and Stanford, the Tigers' offense is showing signs of significant improvement. Coming off two consecutive 60+ point games, Clemson's offense has found its footing, and it's hard to see that slowing down against Stanford's defense, which has struggled to contain the pass. Stanford's defense has been vulnerable to passing attacks, ranking 130th in passing yardage allowed and 133rd in yardage per play. Meanwhile, Clemson's pass defense has been just as porous, allowing the third most completions per game and yards per attempt.

Despite Clemson's impressive offense, the expert is taking the over in this matchup, citing Stanford's ability to put up points even in losses. The Cardinal previously upset Syracuse as 9-point underdogs, and they've shown flashes of potent offense in their last two games. With both teams trending in the right direction offensively, the over is the preferred play. The pace of the game is expected to be fast, with both teams ranking in the top 25 in terms of pace. With the potential for a high-scoring affair, the over is the smart bet in this matchup.
