Clemson vs Arizona Picks & Prediction

Clemson was bounced immediately in the ACC Tournament by Boston College, but the Tigers rebounded from that defeat to make the Sweet 16.

The Tigers are in their first Sweet 16 since 2018 after dominating New Mexico and holding off Baylor. The key to Clemson’s success in the first weekend was limiting those opponents to 9-of-47 from 3-point range.

Arizona took care of Long Beach State and Dayton in the first two rounds to erase last season’s disappointment of getting shocked by 15th-seeded Princeton in the opening round.

Since getting upset at Oregon State in late January, Arizona is 13-3 SU and 10-4-2 ATS the last 16 games. In that stretch, three of the four ATS losses came as a favorite of 12 points or more.

Arizona’s 3-point defense has been superb of late by not allowing an opponent to convert on better than 34% of its attempts from downtown in 12 straight games. Clemson has been hovering that range the last two games by hitting 33% against New Mexico and 35% against Baylor.

Clemson has been magnificent as an underdog this season at 8-1 ATS and 6-3 SU with two of those losses by two points or less.

The Tigers have proven they can step up to the challenge as an underdog and there is no reason to jump off that, even against Arizona.

Pick: Clemson +7 (-110)
