Dabo Swinney's Clemson Tigers have established a reputation as a perennial national championship threat. Following last year's 10-3 finish, there's work to be done to get back in that conversation. And if college football odds are any indication of the Tigers' 2022 season, they're not far away from the conversation.
A pair of coordinator departures – Brent Venables and Tony Elliott – led to Brandon Streeter's promotion from passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach to the offensive coordinator and Wes Goodwin's promotion to defensive coordinator.
Clemson National Championship Odds
Clemson is +1200 at BetMGM to win the national championship. The Tigers have the fourth-shortest odds in the country to win the national championship despite going 10-3 a season ago.
The offense sputtered, ranking 82nd nationally in scoring with 26.3 points per game. The betting market seems to think that was an aberration, and either D.J. Uiagalelei will get back on track after averaging just 6.0 yards per attempt and completing 55.6% of his passes, or five-star freshman Cade Klubnik will provide an upgrade.
