Experts release final Pinstripe Bowl predictions for Clemson vs. Penn State at Yankee Stadium

Clemson and Penn State meet tomorrow at Yankee Stadium Bowl Stripe Match between two programs trying to salvage seasons that began with College Football Playoff aspirations. Ranked 6th and 3rd in the preseason, the two teams endured midseason turmoil before finding late-season momentum to reach bowl eligibility.

The Tigers (7-5) are riding a four-game winning streak, led by senior quarterback Cade Klubnik. In what would be his final game for Clemson, Klubnik refused to opt out of the bowl game, citing a desire to lead his team to its fifth straight victory. Penn State (6-6) is also coming off a hot streak, having won three straight under interim head coach Terry Smith. The Nittany Lions will be without several starters who opted for the NFL Draft, including star running back Nicholas Singleton, although All-Big Ten selection Kaytron Allen is expected to dress and be available.

The collision of Klubnik’s career finale and Penn State’s transition into the Matt Campbell era prompted analysts to make a final re-evaluation of tomorrow’s projections. The new simulations focus on how a depleted Penn State roster will fare against a Clemson team that found its defensive identity during a late-season surge.

The results of these simulations were compared to updated betting odds to construct the data-driven Clemson-Penn State preview below.
