North Carolina vs Clemson Preview
The obvious angle here is to look to fade Clemson off the Tigers’ upset over Duke on Saturday. Brad Brownell’s squad out-scored the Blue Devils 33-22 over the final 15 minutes to knock off the No. 2 team in the country.
With only one day to recover from that victory, the traditional handicapping angle would be to look for reasons to play against Clemson on Monday.
We’re not so sure it’s going to be that easy. It didn’t generate the same kind of headlines as Clemson’s win over Duke, but North Carolina kept its season alive with a 67-66 home win over Pitt on Saturday.
Even with ten losses before Valentine’s Day, ESPN’s Joe Lunardi has the Tar Heels on the NCAA Tournament bubble.
It’s on a different scale than beating No. 2 Duke, but in terms of coming off a big, meaningful victory, North Carolina is in the exact same boat as Clemson.
Our preferred look in this one is on the under. The last three games played at Clemson in this ACC rivalry have seen an average of 129.3 points per game.
Clemson’s interior defense held the Blue Devils to 38.7-percent shooting from two-point range on Saturday.
North Carolina vs Clemson Predictions
North Carolina is 15th out of 18 ACC teams in three-point shot attempts. Made three-pointers only account for 27-percent of North Carolina’s points this season, which is 4.5-percent below the national average.
In North Carolina’s last three road games, the Tar Heels have shot a combined 29.3-percent from three-point range. Clemson is playing at the second-slowest pace in the ACC. The under is 9-2 in North Carolina’s last 11 games.
The under is 6-4 in Clemson’s last ten games, but two of those “over” results required overtime to get there and would have comfortably stayed under the total in regulation.
With both teams likely nursing some tired legs after playing on Saturday, we’re expecting a slow start in this one.
North Carolina vs Clemson Prediction: Under 144.5
