Match Details
- Date: 2025-09-13
- Time: 4:00 PM UTC
- Location: Bobby Dodd Stadium at Hyundai Field, Atlanta, Georgia
Game Overview
The No. 12 Clemson Tigers (1-1) visit the undefeated Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (2-0) in an ACC clash. Clemson is the slight favorite but has struggled ATS early this season, while Georgia Tech has momentum behind a strong start.
Key Factors to Consider
- Georgia Tech is 2-0 with dominant performances against lesser opponents, including a high-scoring 59-12 win, while Clemson sits at 1-1, rebounding from an opening loss with a 27-16 win over Troy. Clemson has looked inconsistent, trailing early in their last game.
- Historically, Clemson holds the upper hand, but recent games have shown Georgia Tech's improving competitiveness, especially at home. No recent direct matchup data favors either decisively.
- Georgia Tech's starting QB Haynes King was sidelined last week but is expected to practice and likely play, which is crucial for their offense. Clemson appears healthy with no major injury concerns reported.
- The game is at Georgia Tech's home stadium, which could neutralize Clemsonβs slight edge. Weather and other conditions are typical for mid-September in Atlanta, unlikely to affect play significantly.
- Georgia Tech aims to protect their unbeaten record and build ACC standing, while Clemson seeks to avoid an 1-2 start, critical for their season trajectory and bowl aspirations.
