3 Team 10 Point Teaser
So. Fla./Clemson under 51 & Notre Dame/Mia. Fla. under 57.5 & Notre Dame +13 $400 Lines currently available at BetUS. I like both these games to be low scoring and adding the 10 points gets us up to numbers that all these teams rarely played up to this year. Clemson did not play a game all year that totaled over 51 points, and Notre Dame played over 57.5 points just twice this year. I expect Notre Dame to win SU, so getting them at +13 is a gift.
