Tigers Down Crimson Tide
We really like this game. This is a fun game that we saw earlier in the season. That was a long time ago, and both teams have changed since then. The Clemson Tigers are going to want to slow the game down a little, and Alabama will want to speed it up. Look for middle ground here, but in the end, the Clemson Tigers are going to keep this game close. When we bet on this game, we are going to take the Clemson Tigers +3.5, and consider them on the moneyline to win this game. Enjoy the game and best of luck with all your College Basketball betting!
