SMU vs. Clemson

SMU had little trouble with Syracuse yesterday as a 9-point favorite. They're on an 8-11 ATS run, plus 1-4 ATS as a dog. SMU is 13th in the 18-team ACC in free-throw shooting (72.1%), while the defense is ninth in points given up. Rested Clemson has already locked up a trip to the Big Dance and is still motivated to win the first ACC tournament championship in school history. The offense is fifth in scoring (77.1 ppg), fourth in shooting (47%), third from area code three (37.8%), and fourth from the line (76.5%). The rock-solid defense is second in points given up (65.7 ppg). Clemson is on a 17-2 SU, 14-5 ATS run, including a 79-69 win and cover at SMU last month. Play Clemson.
