Game# 653-654
Play On: Virginia +4.5

Clemson has leveled off considerably after an impressive start to the season. The Tigers are coming off an uninspiring 70-64 home win over a terrible Louisville team and didn’t come close to covering as a 16.0-point favorite. Clemson is 0-3 SU in their last 3 games immediately following a win. They also suffered a recent home loss to Georgia Tech as an 11.5-point favorite.

Virginia enters today on a 5-game win streak in which they outscored opponents by an average of 10.4 points per game. Granted those wins didn’t all come over top shelf competition, but you can never undervalue an underdog with momentum. During their current win streak, Virginia has made an excellent 41.7% of their 3-point shot attempts. Making those long-distance shots is the great equalizer for an underdog and especially so on the road. Give me Virginia plus points.
