SYRACUSE, N.Y. – The Friday slate of games for the seventh week of the college football season has a handful of intriguing betting lines that can be exploited by sports bettors.
Syracuse Orange Vs. Clemson Tigers: First Quarter Total
The Clemson Tigers offense has struggled mightily to this point in the season. They’re averaging the fewest yards and points per game in the ACC and have especially struggled in the first quarter.
Clemson Tigers First Quarter Total
- OVER 6.5 -180
- UNDER 6.5 +135
The Syracuse Orange defense is allowing just 1.2 first-quarter points per game this season against FBS opponents and projects this to be a tough matchup for the Tigers, who are scoring 5.2 points per first quarter this season. Online sportsbooks may be undervaluing the country’s No. 2 first-quarter scoring defense in this tilt.
Plus, Clemson may not have many possessions as Syracuse is a run-heavy team that averages 242.8 rushing yards per game. If they can put together a drive or two that chews up the clock, Clemson’s chances of hitting this mark get even lower.
The game begins on Friday at 7:00 p.m. EST on ESPN.
San Diego State Vs. San Jose State: First Quarter Spread
The No. 24 ranked San Diego State Aztecs are set to play the San Jose State Spartans on Friday night. San Diego State is favored by 10.0 points in the game but the first quarter spread is listed at just 0.5 points on college football betting sites.

California Golden Bears Vs. Oregon Ducks: First Half Team Total

Cal is averaging 12.2 points per first half this season while the Ducks are allowing 11.8 points per game in the first half.
