(NCAAB) Clemson vs. Pittsburgh,
Point Spread: 2.50 | -110.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Loss
Clemson is a team who struggles on the road. They take on the Pitt Panthers who were just buried at home by Louisville, 106-51, this past Tuesday in the worst home defeat in Atlantic Coast Conference history. The Panthers desperately need this home win as they go on the road for three straight games following this matchup with the first two games being at North Carolina and Duke. The Tigers have surrendered 75 or more points in each of those defeats. The Panthers had two losses of 15 plus points last season when playing their next game at home and responded with victories in both of them. I expect Pitt to come out fired up here on Saturday afternoon as they are led by 4 seniors. The Panthers are capable having already defeated 12th-ranked Virginia,and also Maryland and Marquette, which just upset top-ranked Villanova.
