Clemson vs. LSU Touchdown Scorer Predictions: Best TD Picks for College Football Week 1
My best anytime touchdown scorer predictions for Clemson vs. LSU in Week 1 focus on TJ Moore, Sam Leavitt, and Tre'Dez Green. Though oddsmakers have the total set at 50.5, I expect a low-scoring game, like last year's 17-10 win for LSU. Below, I highlight which players will overcome the defensive nature of this game, including one with odds of +270.
LSU is favored by 10.5 points in our college football Week 1 predictions ahead of tonight's 7:30 p.m. ET game at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, LA. The game will air on ABC and stream on ESPN Unlimited.

💰 Best Clemson vs. LSU touchdown scorer bet: TJ Moore (+270)
Last season, Moore led Clemson with 837 receiving yards, giving him 233 more than any other player. He was also tied for the second-most receiving touchdowns on the team, with four. Christopher Vizzina, Clemson's starting quarterback, threw four touchdowns last season, two of which were to Moore.
This isn't my top play because LSU allowed just 14 touchdown passes last season, tied for 20th in the country. But with the price at +270 at FanDuel (it's +200 at DraftKings), there's a lot of value in this wager.

Trey'Dez Green, TE, LSU (+130)
Green was excellent for LSU last season, scoring in six of his eight games. In all, he caught 33 passes, seven of which were touchdowns.
Though Green caught only two passes for 17 yards against Clemson last season, he also scored the game-winning touchdown. While Clemson's rush defense was good at keeping teams out of the end zone, the pass defense allowed 18 touchdowns, tied for 63rd in the country.
Sam Leavitt, QB, LSU (+120)
Leavitt has rushed for five touchdowns in each of his last two seasons. He's great at ensuring he gets opportunities, as he has had at least 73 rushing attempts in each of those years, despite playing just seven games last season.
This isn't a top play because Clemson allowed just 10 rushing touchdowns last season. Yet, with Leavitt seeing his first real action in a new offense, I expect him to try to make plays with his legs, as he and his receivers work out timing issues.
