Clemson moves up in latest National Championship odds

Sports Illustrated's OddsShark website recently increased Clemson's chances of bringing home a national championship to +550 to win the national championship, second behind only Alabama at +200.

According to OddsShark, "The Clemson Tigers are off to a 3–0 straight up and against the spread start in 2017, bringing their record since the start of the 2016 season to 17–1 SU and 11–7 ATS. The Tigers have surged up the betting board to become one of the top favorites to win the national championship.

This year's Tigers defense looks like it could be one of the best in the country after holding Auburn to six points at home and then Louisville to 21 on the road, with 14 of those points coming in the fourth quarter when the game was already in hand."

Given Clemson's stiff defense and an offense that has surprised, Clemson has become a trendy selection to win a second consecutive national title.
