Florida State @ Clemson

Current Records: Florida State 13-7; Clemson 11-9

What to Know

The Clemson Tigers and the Florida State Seminoles will face off in an ACC clash at 7 p.m. ET Feb. 2 at Littlejohn Coliseum. The teams split their matchups last year, with Clemson winning the first 77-67 at home and FSU taking the second 80-61.

It was close but no cigar for the Tigers as they fell 71-69 to the Duke Blue Devils last Tuesday. The top scorers for Clemson were forward PJ Hall (14 points), forward Hunter Tyson (13 points), and guard Chase Hunter (12 points).

Meanwhile, the contest between FSU and the Virginia Tech Hokies this past Saturday was not particularly close, with FSU falling 85-72. A silver lining for the Seminoles was the play of guard Anthony Polite, who had 17 points in addition to six rebounds.

Clemson is the favorite in this one, with an expected 3.5-point margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (8-3), so they might be worth a quick bet.

The losses put the Tigers at 11-9 and FSU at 13-7. A pair of stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Clemson ranks 24th in college basketball when it comes to steals given up per game, with only 5.2 on average. But FSU comes into the game boasting the 20th most steals per game in college basketball at 9.2. Ball control might end up being a major factor in this one.
