Syracuse was outplayed at home in its first meeting with Clemson, as the Tigers dominated in the paint and on the boards. Clemson shot over 60 percent from the field and 42.9 percent from long range, while the Cuse shot just 39 percent overall. 

I don't anticipate the shooting percentages will vary that much tomorrow evening, as the visitors are riding a four-game winning streak and are a half-game ahead of the home team in the ACC standings. The Tigers turned the ball over 21 times in the first matchup, and while they're unlikely to commit 20-plus TOs again, it wouldn't surprise me if the Orange won the turnover battle. Syracuse ranks 9th nationally in steals and averages just 11 turnovers per game.

This game will be more competitive than the spread suggests. Look for the Orange to get out in transition (35th in pace) to offset the Tigers' advantage inside.
