Clemson Tigers

No. 16 Clemson (11-1) has only lost at Memphis. The Tigers come off a 93-58 win over Radford on Friday. Clemson got off to a hot start and ended up with a 49-point first half and a 26-point advantage after the opening stanza. The Tigers added their second 70.0 percent shooting half in the last two games after shooting 70.4 percent in the final period to rout the Highlanders. Nine Tigers hit the scoring column, and for the 12th-straight game, Clemson produced more assists than turnovers (14-13). Clemson outrebounded Radford by 32 (45-13). The +32 rebound margin tied for fourth all-time in a game in program history.

The Tigers were led by Joseph Girard III, who finished with 24 points on 8-for-11 shooting, including four triples. He moved into fifth all-time in ACC history in 3-pointers (335). Girard also finished with four rebounds and three assists. PJ Hall (17) and Chase Hunter (16) combined for 33 points, while Hunter led the game with five assists. RJ Godfrey also tallied double-figures, finishing with 10 points.

One of the reasons for Clemson’s 11-1 start has been excellence when it comes to assist/turnover ratio. The Tigers have had more assists than turnovers in every game. Their streak of 12 consecutive games with more assists than turnovers is the longest for a Clemson team since the 1982-83 season when then Coach Bill Foster’s Tigers had a streak of 13 consecutive games. The Tigers currently have an assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.73 ratio.

This year’s club benefits from four transfers who have played a combined 393 college basketball games over 14 seasons of experience.

Why Bet on Miami Hurricanes?

Miami (10-2) probably should be ranked but both its losses were of the blowout variety. Miami is one of three DI teams to have three players tally a double-double in the same game against a DI opponent this year. They are joined by Illinois (12/29 vs. FDU) and Iowa (12/20 vs. UMBC).

Miami has scored at least 90 points on five occasions this year, marking the 22nd time a Miami team has done it at least five times in a given year. The record for most such games in a season is a whopping 16 set in 1988-89.

The Canes hold a winning record in the first game of a calendar year, posting a 38-26 all-time mark. When playing at home, Miami is 28-14.

Do note that Poplar and Pack, two of the key Canes, are both in some question Wednesday with minor injuries as both are being called day-to-day.
