Florida State vs. Clemson Prediction and Pick

I was high on Florida State heading into this year, and the Seminoles have been a massive disappointment. I'm officially done believing that they're going to be a force in the ACC and I'm going to fade them tonight.

Clemson has been one of the best shooting teams in the country this season. The Tigers rank 40th in effective field goal percentage, which is much better than the Seminoles, who rank 143rd.

One of Florida State's biggest strengths is its ability to force turnovers, ranking 33rd in opponent turnovers per possession. It will be hard for them to capitalize on that tonight, as Clemson ranks 61st in the country in turnovers per possession, coughing up the ball on only 16.6% of possessions.

Ignore the difference in the records, Clemson is the bet to make tonight.

Pick: Clemson -3.5
