Duke at Clemson

Duke has a lot of talented new players, and coach K does not have a deep team. That has been reduced by the injury to Amile Jefferson. For the time being, Duke has adapted, but they will be challenged by a Clemson team that just beat a ranked opponent in Louisville on this court at home, so they will be a confident group tonight. Clemson remains an under-the-radar team, despite the win over Louisville as they have now won three straight games, all as an underdog. Duke has played five soft touches in a row since losing to a good Utah team. Without Jefferson here against a tough to beat Clemson team that is playing well, the depth and injury will take its toll in this one. Take the points on Clemson.
