The Clemson Tigers beat the South Carolina Gamecocks 62-60 on the road last season, and they're coming off an impressive 71-69 win as a 6.5-point dog against Florida. They're averaging 78.9 ppg on 50.2 percent shooting from the field. Their 59 percent clip on 2-point field goals ranks ninth in the country.

The Gamecocks just barely got by Coastal Carolina their last time out, winning 80-78 as a 15-point favorite and they allowed their opponent to shoot 46 percent from the field.

My selection is an 8* play on Clemson Tigers.
