COLUMBIA — Clemson will be favored in every big game it plays this coming football season, while South Carolina — well, let’s just say the Gamecocks had better get used to being a double-digit underdog.
That’s the opinion of the Golden Nugget sports book, which offered Las Vegas’ first real glimpse of the 2015 college football season. The casino released spreads on its annual games of the year on Friday, and among the 166 contests were six each involving Clemson and South Carolina — including the annual in-state rivalry set for Nov. 28 at Williams-Brice Stadium.
For Clemson fans, there are plenty of reasons to be optimistic.
