Clemson Tigers vs NC State Wolfpack Predictions 1/8/2022

The Wolfpack of NC State is 8-7 overall and 1-3 in the Atlantic Coast Conference. They did not perform badly, but the wins did not come as frequently as they would like.

They lost non-conference games to Oklahoma State, Purdue, and Richmond, all of which were competitive. However, they also lost to Wright State, a team they were favored to defeat. They lost to Miami, Louisville, and Florida State in the league, all of which were tough opponents.

The good news is that they just won their first league game, defeating Virginia Tech 68-63 on Tuesday. As the match was played at Virginia Tech, they were a 9-point favorite.

It was a terrific victory for Tech, which is rated 30th in KenPom, especially on the road. NC State shot 44% and dominated Virginia Tech on the glass, outrebounding them 36-26 and grabbing 14 offensive rebounds.

Dereon Seabron led the way with 21 points and ten rebounds. Seabron averages 19.7 points per game and 9.8 rebounds. Terquavion Smith contributed 17 points, including four three-pointers, while Jericole Hellems chipped in 15 points. Smith and Hellems both score 14.6 points per game on average.

The University of North Carolina State Wolfpack is 4-12 ATS in their last 16 matches.

The total went OVER in 5 of North Carolina State’s last 6 matches in the ACC.

Clemson Tigers vs NC State Wolfpack. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Clemson Tigers. Both of these teams competed hard but fell short in the ACC or against higher-ranked opponents more often than not.

But I favor Clemson’s chances here since the Tigers previously showed they can win on the road with a huge win at Virginia. One, they are excellent three-point shooters, shooting 41 percent from beyond the arc and ranking fifth in the country in that metric.

NC State ranks 268th in the US in three-point defense. Clemson is extremely good on defense, restricting opponents to a 41% shooting percentage. NC State’s offense is inefficient, ranked 284th in field goal %, so scoring should be difficult against a strong Clemson defense. The Clemson Tigers will win to a predicted score of 68-66.
