This season's Clemson team is a departure from the Tigers teams of recent years, but it will try and take a win from its Week 8 matchup with No. 23 Pitt on Saturday. Last year, Clemson averaged 43.5 points per game, but this season the offense is scoring 20.5, which is the 17th-lowest mark among all FBS teams. Meanwhile, Pitt is 5-1 and sits in first place in the ACC Coastal Division.

Kick-off for the game is 3:30 p.m. ET at Heinz Field. Senior QB Kenny Pickett has been one of the nation's top passers, which is why the Panthers are favored by 3.5 points in the latest Pittsburgh vs. Clemson odds from Caesars Sportsbook, and the over-under is set at 47.
