Why Bet on the Clemson Tigers?
After finishing the season with 2 straight losses versus teams that didn’t sniff the NCAA Men’s College Basketball Tournament, few thought Clemson would pick their game up enough to beat a squad like Baylor, much less best Arizona.
Versus the Wildcats, the Tigers played like the higher seeded team, holding Zona star guard Caleb Love to 5-of-18 from the field and 0-of-9 from three. Arizona played decent three-point defense, but Clemson dominated inside, shooting close to 50% from the field.
If Clemson plays the same type of defense on Saturday, Bama will be in trouble of losing this straight up.
Why Bet on the Alabama Crimson Tide?
The Tar Heels dominated the first half when building a 54-46 halftime lead. In the second half, it was a much different story. Alabama’s defense stood tall in the second stanza.
Bama kept Amando Bacot and his mates at bay, holding the Heels to 33 points. The difference of 21 points from the first half to the second half was startling. So was Alabama’s shooting in the second half, which equated to 43 points.
Bama has won games this season by scoring over 100. What it tells us is that this Crimson Tide squad can make necessary adjustments to win college basketball games. Alabama is firing on all cylinders heading into this Elite 8 matchup.
