For the only time in the regular season, the Syracuse Orange (16-11, 15-11-1 ATS, 9-7 ACC) and the Clemson Tigers (19-8, 13-14-0 ATS, 11-5 ACC) will meet on the court. Syracuse has beaten Clemson the previous two times they've played, and the home team has won the last seven games in this series. That should be encouraging for Clemson, who has performed well at home this season and gets to host the game. Tipoff is slated for 7:00 p.m. EST in Littlejohn Coliseum.
Syracuse had won three straight before Duke walloped them on their home floor on Saturday night. They trailed by 13 at the half, and it got worse from there, ultimately ending in a 22-point defeat. The Orange only shot 34.5% and allowed the Blue Devils to grab 13 more boards. Syracuse's leading scorer this season, Joseph Girard III, had a game-high 21 points.
Offensively, the Orange usually shoot pretty well. They're fifth in the ACC, shooting 46.5% as a team from the floor. On three-pointers, they are 35.7%, which is sixth. They put up 73.9 points a night, which is eighth in the conference.
On defense, 70.6 per game, which is also eighth. They lead the ACC in blocks per game with 5.3, and the Orange are third in steals with 7.6. Opposing teams shoot 42. 0% against Syracuse, fifth in the ACC this season.
The Orange are 98th in the nation per KenPom. It's possible, but right now it doesn't appear likely that they'll be dancing this March.
