The 2020 College Football Playoff National Championship takes place on Monday, Jan. 13 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Kickoff is at 8 p.m. ET, when the No. 1 LSU Tigers face off against the No. 3 Clemson Tigers. The two teams are led by quarterbacks who could wind up being No. 1 overall picks in the NFL Draft, with Joe Burrow the odds-on favorite in 2020 and Trevor Lawrence viewed as the potential No. 1 pick in 2021. LSU's offense leads the nation in scoring (48.9), while Clemson's ranks fourth (45.3).
The Bayou Bengals are 5.5-point favorites after the spread opened at five, and the over-under for total points scored is 69.5 in the latest LSU vs. Clemson odds. You'll want to see the latest college football predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model before entering any Clemson vs. LSU picks.
This model simulates every FBS college football game 10,000 times. Over the past four-plus years, the proprietary computer model has generated a stunning profit of almost $4,000 for $100 players on its top-rated college football picks against the spread. It also went a sizzling 8-2 on all picks against the spread during Championship Week. Anyone who has followed it has seen huge returns.
Now the model has dialed in on LSU vs. Clemson in the 2020 National Championship Game. We can tell you it's leaning under, and it also says one side of the spread hits in nearly 60 percent of simulations. You can head to SportsLine to see the pick. Now, here are the college football odds and trends for Clemson vs. LSU:
- LSU vs. Clemson spread: LSU -5.5
- LSU vs. Clemson over-under: 69.5 points
- LSU vs. Clemson money line: LSU -225, Clemson +183
- LSU: QB Joe Burrow has thrown 55 touchdown passes and six interceptions
- CLEM: RB Travis Etienne has a rushing TD in eight straight games
The model knows Burrow has gone from unlikely hero to surprise Heisman winner to authoring one of the top seasons in the history of college football. He set season-highs for yards (493), touchdowns (seven) and efficiency rating (239.77) in the Peach Bowl against Oklahoma. He broke numerous College Football Playoff records despite playing slightly more than three quarters since the outcome was a foregone conclusion.
That performance has him in line to potentially break Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's FBS record for single-season efficiency. Burrow sits at 204.60, while Tagovailoa's 2018 record is 199.44. He also could break Texas alum Colt McCoy's single-season accuracy record, having completed 77.6 percent of his throws thus far. McCoy completed 76.7 percent for the Longhorns in 2008. He also has a chance to challenge former Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan's single-season touchdown mark of 58; Burrow has 55 entering the title game.
Despite its electric offense, LSU is not guaranteed to cover the LSU vs. Clemson spread in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game 2020.
That's because Brent Venables and Clemson's defense will be looking to throw a few wrinkles at LSU. Even though Clemson gave up 516 yards of total offense to Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl, it was able to limit the Buckeyes to 23 points by racking up four sacks and forcing Justin Fields into two interceptions. Clemson limited Ohio State to 7-of-18 on third downs in its 29-23 win.
Meanwhile, Clemson's offense added a new wrinkle in the win over Ohio State, with Lawrence rushing for 106 yards and a touchdown. John Rhys Plumlee of Ole Miss gashed LSU's defense for 212 yards and four touchdowns on the ground during the regular season, while Jalen Hurts ran for two scores.
So who wins Clemson vs. LSU in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game 2020? And which side of the spread can you bank on in almost 60 percent of simulations?
