Today, WE CRUSH THE BOOKS on the college hoops hardwood: SEC SMASH, REVENGE GAME OF THE WEEK, and my strongest play yet, my BIG 12 CRUSHER GAME OF THE MONTH (16-2-1 BIG GAME RUN). Saturday's free winner; Clemson Game 764. 3:30 PM PST 6:30 PM EST. This ACC matchup is one of the most significant on the college basketball card today. Duke ranks second in the nation right now, while Clemson is just outside the top 25, and a big win here would certainly allow them to crack the top 25. The Blue Devils sit atop the ACC with a perfect, 12-0 conference record, while the tigers are right behind them tied with the Cardinals at 10-2. The last meeting between these two conference rivals was a little more than a year ago when Duke prevailed at home, 72-71. The Blue Devils are running hot, winning 16 straight outings, while the Tigers come off a loss following a six-game win streak. Getting points at home is usually something to look at in college basketball, and Clemson owns a very respectable, 11-2 record at the Littlejohn Coliseum. But you can't ignore Duke's perfect 7-0 away mark this season. Last year's meeting saw the Tigers win the battle of the boards. However, I believe the Blue Devils might have a little edge here on the glass. As a matter of fact, most of the numbers put a lean towards the visitor in this matchup. Duke scores more points, while they give up less points. But Clemson is one of the deadliest teams from beyond the arc in college basketball. They also have the luxury of having their very loyal fans in the stands to give them support. I think this is a lot of points to give them. Take the Tigers. Thank you.
