College Basketball Betting Trends

Clemson

The Tigers are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 neutral site games. Clemson is 9-4 ATS in its last 13 games overall.

North Carolina State

The Wolfpack are 6-2 ATS in their last eight games overall. NC State is 5-0 ATS in its last five games following a straight up win. 

Prediction:

The Tigers have an elite defense, while the strength of the Wolfpack is on the offensive end. While Clemson has perhaps played the better basketball as of late, crazy things happen in conference tournament and NC State has had a solid season with some strong wins. This one should go down to the wire and I'll take the Wolfpack here as they looked to have sorted a lot out in their easy win at Boston College over the weekend.
