ASA ACC Win Total Projections 2026: Cal Under 6.5 & Clemson Over 7.5
Looking for the best ACC win total projections ahead of the 2026 college football season? Our latest ACC football win total analysis highlights one team we like Under its season win total and one we strongly favor Over.
Here are our top ACC win total projections at DraftKings.
California Golden Bears Under 6.5 Wins (-130)
Cal finished with a 6-6 regular season record last year, and we expect the Golden Bears to take a small step back in 2026. They went 4-4 in ACC play, but all four of their conference wins came by four points or fewer, while three of their four losses were by double digits. Their average ACC win margin was just +3.25 points, while their average loss was a lopsided -15.75 points. In short, they were fortunate to finish .500 in league play.
The Bears were also outgained overall on both a yards-per-game and yards-per-play basis. While they return a solid quarterback in Jeron-Keawe Sagapolutele, they enter the year with a first-time head coach plus new offensive and defensive coordinators. An adjustment period is likely.
Although Cal avoids the ACC’s top team (Miami) this season, the schedule still presents challenges. The Bears make three trips to the East Coast and face non-conference tests at UNLV and against UCLA. We project them as clear favorites in only two games (vs. Wagner and Stanford). Cal has not exceeded six regular-season wins since 2019.
Projection: 6-6 at best, more likely 5-7. We like the California Golden Bears Under 6.5 wins.
Clemson Tigers Over 7.5 Wins (-140)
Clemson entered last season as a top-10 team but disappointed with a 7-5 regular-season record. We expect a solid bounce-back in 2026 from a program that has claimed eight of the last 11 ACC titles. Playing with slightly less external pressure could actually help the Tigers.
Despite going 4-4 in ACC play last year, Clemson outgained its conference opponents by nearly +70 yards per game—a performance that typically produces a record closer to 6-2. The defense should take another step forward under second-year coordinator Tom Allen, one of the top defensive minds in the country. We rate the Tigers’ defensive line, linebackers, and secondary as top-three units in the ACC.
While they must replace former starter Cade Klubnik, new quarterback Christopher Vizzina showed promise in his lone start last season, throwing for 317 yards and three touchdowns against a strong SMU defense. He returns for his third year in the program and has plenty of weapons around him if he can stay consistent.
Schedule-wise, Clemson avoids both Louisville and SMU—two of the ACC’s strongest teams alongside Miami and the Tigers themselves. They also enjoy a favorable home slate with seven home games and just five on the road. Prior to last season, Clemson had not failed to win at least eight regular-season games since 2010.
Projection: Bounce-back year for the Tigers. We like Clemson Over 7.5 wins.
Final Thoughts on These ACC Win Total Projections
These two plays stand out among our 2026 ACC football win total projections. The California Golden Bears face roster and coaching transition challenges that should keep them under their number, while Clemson has the talent, defense, and schedule to clear 7.5 wins comfortably.Stay locked in for more college football win total projections and ACC betting analysis throughout the offseason.

ASA’s NHL Predictions 2025: Play: Stars Over, Leafs Under, Knights Cup Run
The Picks: Dallas Stars Over 51.5 wins (+100), Toronto Maple Leafs Under 46.5 wins (-110), and Vegas Golden Knights to win 2025-26 Stanley Cup (+900).
Dallas crushed it in 2024-25 despite chaos—50 wins and 106 points even after dropping their final seven games, with key injuries sidelining Tyler Seguin and Miro Heiskanen for chunks of the season. They still ranked 3rd league-wide in goals for (275) and 6th in goals against (222), boasting a +53 differential. Full health plus Mikko Rantanen (projected 88+ points) and new (old) coach Glen Gulutzan returning for his 2nd stint with Dallas? Easy push to 53+ wins in a winnable Central.
Toronto’s core sparkled offensively last year (7th in GF at 267), but losing Mitch Marner craters their top-six production—his 102+ point pace leaves a gaping hole, especially with defensive lapses persisting (8th in GA at 229). Coach Craig Berube in his 2nd season stabilizes, but without Marner’s playmaking, expect regression to 44 wins max in a shark tank Atlantic.
Vegas reloaded masterfully, snagging Marner (741 points since ’16-17) to pair with Jack Eichel’s rising star power, offsetting 2024-25’s injury-riddled second-round exit (despite a 4-2 first-round W). Offensively this team was 4th in total shots on goal, 5th in goals scored and 2nd in power play percentage. Their defense (led by Shea Theodore – 3RD in GA 214) and depth scream contender—+900 is steal value for a proven Cup squad (2023 champs) primed for a deep Pacific run. Fade the doubters; Knights hoist it in June.
The NHL starts Tuesday, October 7th – get your action in before the puck drops.

Chicago Cubs: 2024 Wins: 83. 2025 WIN TOTAL odds 84.5

Milwaukee Brewers: 2024 Wins: 92. 2025 WIN TOTAL odds 83.5
ASA Analysis – Pitching: Steady with Peralta, Cortes and Myers. The return of Woodruff could be a huge boost. Bullpen: Lost Williams but added lefties Cortes Jr and Quintana. Batting: Contreras carries the load, and Jackson Chourio is an up-and-comer. Projection: 89 wins (-3, slight regression).

Projection: 73 wins. The Cards were +12 in wins from 2023-24 but expect a regression. (-10, may selloff at trade deadline).
NL West
Arizona Diamondbacks: 2024 Wins: 89. 2025 WIN TOTAL odds 87.5
ASA Analysis – Pitching: the Corbin Burnes signing was huge, Zac Gallen and the rest of the staff is elite. Bullpen: Good. Batting: Marte finished top 3 in MVP voting in 2024 w/.292 average, 36 HR’s and .932 OPS. Corbin Carroll and Josh Naylor add depth to this lineup. Projection: 90 wins (+1, tough division, but potentially a great rotation).
Colorado Rockies: 2024 Wins: 61. 2025 WIN TOTAL odds 61.5
ASA Analysis – Pitching: Awful. Bullpen: Weak. Batting: Some power with Bryant who hit 30 HR’s last season, no support. This team has been near the bottom of the league for the past 5 years. Projection: 61 wins (NA, no improvement).
Los Angeles Dodgers: 2024 Wins: 98. 2025 WIN TOTAL odds 105.5
ASA Analysis – Pitching: Sasaki, Ohtani, Snell, Glasnow and Sasaki, find a deeper rotation. Bullpen: Elite w/ Kopech, Scott, Yates and Treinen. Batting: Ohtani, Betts unmatched. 4th best team batting average at .261, 1st in slugging at .445 and a run differential of +180. Projection: 99 wins (+1, still dominant).
San Diego Padres: 2024 Wins: 93. 2025 TOTAL WIN odds 85.5
ASA Analysis – Pitching: Cease, King strong, Darvish to start the season on the IL. Bullpen: Solid a top 13 unit. Batting: Tatis, Machado lead, can Bogaerts turn back the clock one more year. Last year’s rookie sensation Jackson Merrill is a player to watch. Projection: 82 wins (-11, potential trades if the team decides to sell at the deadline).
San Francisco Giants: 2024 Wins: 81. 2025 TOTAL WIN odds 79.5
ASA Analysis – Pitching: Logan Webb when on is one of the best in the game. Will age catch up to Verlander? Bullpen: Doval rebounds. After 39 saves in 2023, Doval slipped to 23 a year ago. Batting: Adames adds punch with 32 HR’s last season and a .251 average. Ramos and Chapman also provide depth at the top of the lineup. Projection: 81 wins (steady).
Notes
Top Teams: The Dodgers and Braves have the highest win totals set by the oddsmakers due to elite pitching, bullpens, and batting. The Mets, Yankees, and Phillies follow with strong but slightly flawed rosters.
Bottom Teams: The White Sox remain weak, while the Rockies and Marlins struggle with pitching and depth.
Surprises: Guardians won 92 games a year ago, yet their win total is (82.5) due to losses; Angels rise with an O/U number of (72.5) after winning just 63 game a year ago.
