OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has an NCAA Tournament spread pick Thursday is on West Virginia (-2.5) over Clemson.
Reasoning: This number is just wrong, very wrong. I will admit that Clemson has been playing some strong ball of late but Brad Brownell’s squad is still far from being an offensive force and just should not win this game. Demontez Stitt can score but truly the Tigers are somewhat offensively challenged and a few recent games won’t change my mind.
UAB turned out to be pretty much a dud in the game on Tuesday getting somewhat embarrassed but Clemson really is in a tough spot here having to travel and then play 36 or so hours later in an entirely different venue.
West Virginia isn’t great but they are pretty good and Bob Huggins is no doubt a high level coach that knows a thing or two about tournament basketball. The Mountaineers went 11-7 in the rugged Big East and finished the season with a 20-11 record. They are an experienced team that plays very well together and guys like Flowers, Mitchell, Mazzulla and Jones may not wow many people but as the more rested team and still the better overall squad I can’t help but view this number as way too cheap.
For some reason the oddsmaker has all of a sudden put a ton of stock into these Tigers. Clemson is still a school that is perennially weak away from Littlejohn Coliseum and after just playing I don’t see anything but at least a 6-8 point Mounty victory.
