ESPN has odd score prediction for Clemson football vs South Carolina
The Clemson Tigers close out the 2025 college football regular season with their annual matchup against the in-state rival South Carolina Gamecocks from the SEC.
Clemson (6-5) clinched bowl eligibility with a 45-10 win over Furman from the Football Championship Subdivision last week at Memorial Stadium. Cade Klubnik threw for 159 yards and two touchdowns before receiving one last ovation from the Clemson faithful after being taken out of the game midway through the second quarter.
Antonio Williams caught both touchdown passes from Klubnik and finished the day with 57 yards, and the Tigers ran for 219 yards, with freshman quarterback Chris Denson turning in a stellar performance in his first meaningful action.
The freshman from Plant City, Florida completed all four passes for 22 yards and a touchdown while running for 106 yards and a touchdown on six carries. Denson suffered an injury in practice this week, coach Dabo Swinney announced Tuesday.
South Carolina (4-7) cruised past Coastal Carolina, 51-7, last week. LaNorris Sellers threw for two touchdowns and rushed for two others. Sellers accounted for 356 all-purpose yards (274 passing, 82 rushing). The Gamecocks had lost seven of their last eight games after starting the season 2-0.
Clemson has won eight of the last 10 meetings in the series vs. South Carolina dating back to 2014, including five straight at Williams-Brice Stadium. The Tigers defeated the Gamecocks, 16-7, in the last meeting in Columbia in 2023. South Carolina has won two of the past three head-to-head matchups, both at Clemson.
Will Clemson football beat South Carolina in Columbia again? ESPN makes ‘prediction’
Ahead of Clemson-South Carolina, ESPN’s Bill Connelly tried to predict who will win using his popular SP+ metrics. But even Connelly isn’t sure, it seems.
His score “prediction”: Clemson 24, South Carolina 24.
Clemson and South Carolina have never played in overtime since ties in college football were abandoned in 1995. Nevertheless, Connelly gives the Tigers a win probability of 51%.
What are ESPN SP+ rankings?
According to Connelly, SP+ is “simply a measure of the most sustainable and predictable aspects of football. If you’re lucky or unimpressive in a win, your rating will probably fall. If you’re strong and unlucky in a loss, it will probably rise.”
“SP+ is not a résumé ranking, so it does not automatically give credit for big wins or particularly brave scheduling — no good predictive system does,” he adds.
Clemson vs South Carolina football start time, channel
Clemson-South Carolina is scheduled for a noon ET kickoff Saturday from Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia. The game will be televised on SEC Network. Taylor Zarzour and Matt Stinchcomb will have the TV call of the game. Alyssa Lang will report from the sidelines.
The radio broadcast of Saturday’s game can be heard on the Clemson Tigers app via the Clemson Athletic Network. Don Munson, Tim Bourret and Reggie Merriweather will have the call of the game on the radio. Additionally, the Tigers’ radio broadcast can be heard on SiriusXM channel 193.

Killer lawyer Alex Murdaugh works prison job as court weighs bid for new trial
Nearly three years after disgraced lawyer Alex Murdaugh was convicted of slaughtering his wife and son, he is keeping his head down and nose clean while his lawyers craft an appeal.
The imprisoned scion of a South Carolina legal dynasty is working a prison job, staying largely out of trouble, and pressing forward with his case, according to a report.
Murdaugh, 57, is serving two life sentences without parole for the June 2021 killings of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh.
He is also serving concurrent 40-year federal and 27-year state sentences for financial crimes.
South Carolina Department of Corrections records show Murdaugh has worked as a wardkeeper’s assistant since August 2023.
A wardkeeper’s assistant is responsible for day-to-day operations at a prison, such as helping manage the housing unit where inmates live.
That same month, he was disciplined for feeding information to a documentary crew and barred from phone use and canteen purchases for 30 days, according to his inmate record. He has remained infraction-free since.
His attorney, Dick Harpootlian, said Murdaugh spends much of his time focused on his appeal.
“You can talk to him, unlike normal clients who have no concept of the appellate process or how all this works,” Harpootlian told the Daily Mail. “He is interested because he is a lawyer, so we talk about where we’re at and what we think the grave issues are with the case and what our weaknesses are.”
Harpootlian said they speak weekly and described his client as being in good spirits.
“I think Alex understands he did a bad thing in stealing all that money,” Harpootlian said. “He is adamant he didn’t kill Paul and Maggie. He always has been … and when we get a fair trial, I think the jury will determine he didn’t do it.”
Murdaugh is hopeful about a new trial, his attorney said, but cautioned the inmate is “not confident of anything.”
Behind the scenes, the family dynamic appears far more strained.
Murdaugh’s surviving son, Buster, and daughter-in-law, Brooklynn, have stayed away, a source told the outlet.
The insider said Buster carries “a lot of anger about the loss of his mom and brother” and avoids discussing the case.
“Whether or not Alex killed them, he definitely did enough to tarnish Buster’s name forever, and he’s angry about that,” the source said.
Murdaugh’s appeal heads back to court Feb. 11, when his legal team and the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office will argue before the state Supreme Court in Columbia.
The appeal centers largely on allegations that former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill tampered with the jury during Murdaugh’s murder trial.
Hill pleaded guilty in December to obstruction of justice, perjury, and two counts of misconduct in office after admitting she showed sealed crime scene photos to a reporter and lied about it.
She also admitted to promoting her book about the trial through her public office.
Hill was sentenced to probation. Prosecutors said they found insufficient evidence to prove jury tampering.
Attorneys for Murdaugh argue that Hill’s conduct tainted the trial and jurors should not have heard extensive testimony about his financial crimes.
“By the time the jury heard two-and-a-half weeks of testimony about him stealing $12 million from invalids and orphans, he was so vilified it didn’t matter what [Murdaugh] said on the stand,” Harpootlian said.
Prosecutors maintain the verdict was sound.
Former South Carolina Supreme Court Justice Jean Toal previously ruled Hill’s conduct did not affect the outcome.
Harpootlian said he still believes two shooters carried out the killings.
“There is strategic evidence to indicate that’s correct,” he said. “Two different guns shooting two different people … The forensics supports two people [committing the crime].”
