Clemson vs. Alabama predictions
New York Post: Clemson vs. Alabama under 165 points
Erich Richter writes: "Interestingly enough, the nation’s No. 1 offense in points per game has been getting money from bettors but the under is also gaining some traction, opening at 166 and moving down to 165 or 164.5. Clemson allows opposing teams to shoot just 41 percent and ranks 33rd in KenPom in adjusted defensive efficiency. The Tigers will need that defense to be every bit of elite against Alabama. I’m grabbing the under in this one, at 165 on BetRivers, as Clemson is a live underdog and plays solid enough defense. The Tigers held New Mexico to 56 points and Baylor to 64 points."
