Clemson is heading into the game here with a 79-72 upset win over the Blue Devils in their last game. The win was a shocker for the Tigers, but it was also a shocker as the Tigers were able to play consistent in the game. The win actually moved the Tigers to 3-3 in the ACC, but allowed Clemson to improve to 9-7 overall. 

This season has seen the Tigers get a total of 69.4 points a game on the year. The defense for the Tigers has been impressive as well giving up only 64.3 points a game. The rebounding for the Tigers has come at 34.3 boards a game while getting 13.4 assist a game.

The Wolfpack are coming into the game here after sailing to what seemed like an easy win in their last game. The Wolfpack picked up their win over the Miami Hurricanes by an 80-63 margin. The win improved the North Carolina State team to a 3-3 record in the ACC and 12-5 overall.

This year the Wolfpack have been able to score a total of 78.5 points a game. The defense for the Wolfpack has done decent as well giving up only 70.1 points a game. The North Carolina State team has pulled down 36.9 boards a game while getting 14.1 assist a game.

    After taking down Duke Clemson is riding on a high. However, the Tiger are on the road in this game and facing a North Carolina State team that stopped the Hurricanes offense cold. Look for this game to be a back and forth battle, though, with the offense of the Wolfpack getting a better pull in the game compared to the Clemson defense. Final Score Prediction, North Carolina State Wolfpack win but do not cover ATS 72-67.
