Clemson Tigers vs Arizona Wildcats Picks

crypto.com Arena

<p>Purdue is looking to reach the Final Four for the first time since 1980, but they aren’t the only program in the Sweet Sixteen looking for its best moment since that year. Clemson, who tips off the Sweet Sixteen today with a West Region semifinal against Arizona (7:09 pm ET, CBS), is looking to make the Elite Eight for the first time since 1980.</p>
<p>In 1980, when they reached the Elite Eight for the first and only time before losing to eighth-seeded UCLA, the Tigers were a #6 seed. That year, they opened their first ever NCAA Tournament appearance with a win over #11 seed Utah State then advanced to the Sweet Sixteen with a win over #3 BYU before defeating #10 Lamar to reach the Elite Eight.</p>
<p>As in 1980, Clemson (23-11) is a #6 seed this year. And as in 1980, the Tigers opened the tournament with a win over a current member of the Mountain West (New Mexico) before defeating a current member of the Big 12 (Baylor).</p>
<p>Unlike in 1980, however, their matchup for the Sweet Sixteen is not a surprise participant from the Southland Conference. Instead, it’s a team among the top four favorites to cut down the nets on April 8.</p>
<p>Arizona (27-8) is in the Sweet Sixteen for the 21<sup>st</sup> time (20<sup>th</sup>, if you include a now-vacated 2017 appearance. With a win over Clemson, the Wildcats will reach the Elite Eight for the 12<sup>th</sup> time and the first time since 2015.</p>
<p>After dispatching Long Beach State and Dayton by double digits in the first two rounds, will Arizona be challenged by Clemson? An intriguing matchup is ahead at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.</p>

<h2>Clemson vs Arizona Betting Analysis and Prediction</h2>
<p>After an impressive run through November and December, which included wins over five NCAA Tournament teams (UAB, Boise State, Alabama, South Carolina, and TCU) as well as a win at Pittsburgh (the fourth team left out of the field of 68), Clemson was far less impressive in ACC play.</p>
<p>They did win at North Carolina on February 6 but finished 11-9 and sixth in the standings, then they lost to #11 seed Boston College in the second round.</p>
<p>They seemed a good bet to go down in the first round to New Mexico, who was favored for their matchup. However, it appears that facing non-ACC opponents again has brought out their best. They dominated the Lobos in a 77-56 win, then bounced Baylor 72-64 on Sunday.</p>
<p>The odds are against the Tigers again, which is no surprise. However, counting them out would be a bold move. This season, Clemson is 8-1 ATS (6-3 SU) as an underdog. The lone missed cover came in their regular season finale, an 81-76 loss at Wake Forest as a four-point underdog.</p>
<p>But Clemson is up against some strong numbers here. Arizona is 22-11-2 ATS this season, including 10-4-2 in their last 16 games and 8-4 ATS when favored by single digits.</p>
<p>That said, of the top title hopefuls, Arizona has the most losses, and as talented as they are, they’re not going to stoke any fear into a team that’s won at Alabama and North Carolina and very nearly won at Duke.</p>
<p>In the end, if you are comfortable making a spread play, you are much more fearless than I am. I think Arizona will win, but these kinds of games have brought out Clemson’s best.</p>
<h3>Prediction: Arizona to win</h3>

<h2>Clemson vs Arizona Best Bets</h2>
<h3>Clemson/Arizona Over 152.5 &amp; Clemson/Arizona First Half Over 71.5</h3>
<h3>Bonus Picks: PJ Hall Over 16.5 Points (-110 at BetOnline) &amp; Chase Hunter (Clemson) Over 14.5 Points (-106 at BetOnline)</h3>
<p>After scoring 14 in the first round against New Mexico and 11 in the second round against Baylor, look for Hall to have a more productive performance against Arizona. Only one other time this season has he gone three games without scoring 17+ points.</p>
<p>For the season, Hunter averages 12.7 PPG, third on the team behind Hall and Syracuse transfer Joseph Girard III (15.3 PPG). But he has scored 15+ points seven times in his last nine games, which includes 20+ point games against New Mexico (21 points, 8 of 16 FG, 1 of 4 3PT, 4 of 7 FT) and Baylor (20 points, 5 of 10 FG, 3 of 5 3PT, 7 of 8 FT).</p>
