Clemson is coming off an 83-68 dusting of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, their 13th ACC win of at least double-digits. They currently sit 15-2 in the conference standings, trailing only Duke at 16-1.

Coincidentally, it’s these Tigers that have hung the only loss on the Blue Devils in conference play so far. They are a distant +8000 in the March Madness odds.

Virginia snapped a two-game losing slide with an 83-75 win over the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. Putting aside those L’s to Duke and North Carolina, and the Cavaliers have wins in four of their last six.

In three of those wins, they have held the opposition to 70 points or less. The Cavaliers are 7-10 in NCAA play, and will need a strong kick, and likely impressive run in the ACC Tournament to claim an at-large tourney bid.

Clemson leading scorer Chase Hunter has the highest scoring prop of any player listed at 15.5 points. He’s coming off an 8-point effort in Clemson’s last win over Notre Dame. However, he has topped this total seven times in his last 10 outings. Teammate Viktor Lakhin has the second highest scoring prop for the Tigers at 11.5, while Ian Schieffelin has the top rebounding prop at 7.5 boards, a figure he’s crossed in five straight games.

For Virginia, Isaac McKneely is the high-point man for the Cavaliers at 13.5 points. He’s been clearing this figure in five straight games, and in nine of the last 10.

Andrew Rohde has the top assist total at 4.5 dimes. He’s gone Under the total in two straight, after dishing at least five assists in each of the previous games.

Clemson vs Virginia Prediction

This game pits two of the top defenses in the ACC. Virginia is second in scoring defense at 66.4, with Clemson just a tick down from them in third at 66.5 points.

Assuming both defenses arrive in Charlottesville, the real question will be if the Cavaliers can keep up offensively. They are last in scoring in the ACC at 65.2 points per game, while the Tigers are Top 5, at 77.7 points per contest.

Clemson is also one of the best teams in the nation at shooting from downtown, ranking 12th with a 38.9% clip, and that’s one of the Cavs’ weaknesses — as teams hit at a 34.6% rate, which is outside the Top 250.

While this is Clemson’s year, there has to be some trauma going into the UVA barn, where they’ve lost five of six, and have not cracked the 60-point plateau.

If they can shake their past demons and find their groove offensively, that total is especially low — even with the line jumping three points from the opening 129.5 total to 132.5.

These teams have cashed the Over in three of the last four meetings. Virginia has hit the Over in five straight, and the Tigers have seen the Over go 5-1-0 in their last six too.

  • Clemson vs Virginia pick: Over 132.5 points (-110)
