The Clemson Tigers are not a bad team at 14-11, but the ACC is just over their head at this point. They opened the season at 10-2, but have been 4-9 since. While they played some good teams tough, they simply come up short in most cases. They have lost by five points to Notre Dame, four to Virginia, two to Duke, and by one each to Syracuse and Virginia Tech. They are simply a player short and don't have a closer. Miami is 17-8 on the season because they have a closer, and find a way to win down the stretch. There comes a time where so many close losses wear on a team, and Clemson has allowed 50% or better shooting in six of their last nine, and will come up short once again. Play Miami on the moneyline.
