Kentucky to the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl vs. No. 22 Clemson; Cats open as sizable underdog

We have our first official spread via our friends at DraftKings Sportsbook.

Clemson has opened as a 7.5-point favorite over Kentucky.

The only common opponent the two sides have is South Carolina. Kentucky lost 17-14 in Columbia, while Clemson won 16-7 just a week later in the same venue.

The over/under is 48.5. The moneylines are Kentucky +260 and Clemson -325.

As far as opt-outs go, Kentucky is already down Ray Davis, Jalen Geiger, and Andru Phillips, among others, while Clemson is without standout defender Jeremiah Trotter Jr.

Should be a good one.
