My UNC vs Clemson NCAAB Betting Preview
Clemson is riding high after a massive upset of ACC-leading Duke over the weekend. A huge emotional victory in front of an electric home crowd has the Tigers back in the race to win the regular season title.
Now hosting the Blue Devils’ Tobacco Road rival, UNC, 48 hours later, the Tigers may be a fade spot for many bettors.
But to me, this is a veteran team (ninth nationally in D-I experience) that should be less prone to an emotional letdown.
Plus, the Tigers have immense matchup advantages against the Tar Heels.
Much of what the Tigers did to Duke is sustainable against UNC’s brittle frontcourt. Clemson shot 63.4% inside the arc against the Blue Devils’ elite interior defense, bludgeoning the paint with Ian Schieffelin and Viktor Lakhin.
Lakhin was especially brilliant, going 9-of-12 from the field; no one on UNC can handle him if he remains as locked in.
The Tigers also consistently out-efforted Duke, exhibiting tremendous physicality and hustle for loose balls. UNC has been the exact opposite kind of team this year, frequently struggling to win those subtle areas of the game. Schieffelin, in particular, could have a field day with his non-stop motor.
Trusting UNC has been a fool’s errand this year. The Heels are 7-16-1 against the spread, a bottom-10 mark in the country, and they've failed to cover six games in a row. Even in a strong spot, UNC isn't worth backing.
I expect a second straight big Clemson home win at Littlejohn Coliseum.
