CLEMSON COVERS TONIGHT and WHY
Ok..
It has been a while since I have made a strong play like this one. We have about 20 minutes give or take before this easy winner Tips. Clemson and NC State have done battle two time this season. One time Clemson did not cover the spread of 5, and the other being a push with the line set at 12. So, you may ask why Clemson tonight? There are many reasons why this will be a double figure win for Clemson. First, they have a plus/minus scoring avg of 9 vs opponents. On avg they outscore each opponent by 9..... why does this matter. Well, out of 7 of Clemson's conference losses this season 6 of them have been on the road. This game is not going to be played at NC State nor Clemson. In my opinion this only helps Clemson. If the playing field is leveled on a neutral court that plus/minus ratio goes up vs a weak opponent. Clemson out rebounds, out shoots, and avg's 3 more steals a game. That may not seem like a big number, but with their pressure 3 steals could easily turn into 6 points coming close to covering right off the bat.
Clemson will be out for blood tonight. Their pressure will cripple NC State. Their size on the perimeter will play a roll in the turnover game. The fact they want to meet Duke in an ACC final for revenge will be on the agenda. Clemson is out to prove a point tonight to all the haters who say they are overrated. They are going to be ready to show everyone why they had the hype at the beginning of the year. I believe they bought into how good everyone said they were and forgot they had to play each game. It is now crunch time and they are ready to prove themselves!
Clemson covers..... bank it!
