Top 15 Teams Clash in Littlejohn Coliseum

Littlejohn Coliseum will be rocking on Sunday when the Clemson Tigers host the Duke Blue Devils in a 1 p.m. matchup of top 15 teams. Both will be dealing with crucial injuries. Superstar Duke forward Marvin Bagley III will miss his third straight game with a knee sprain, while Clemson will be without the services of junior guard Shelton Mitchell, who is suffering from neck pain.

The Blue Devils opened as one-point road favorites and now are laying 2.5. The Over-Under, or total number of points Vegas thinks will be scored, is 150.5.

Before choosing either side, you need to read what SportsLine college hoops expert Kenny White -- who has put together an impressive 21-10 run picking college hoops games -- has to say.

Expert Picks: Duke-Clemson

Last week, White made another strong ACC pick involving Virginia Tech at Virginia, boldly backing the Hokies at +12. He wisely recognized that Virginia Tech would not be rattled by the Cavaliers' daunting defense. The result: the Hokies not only covered the spread but won, 61-60, in a monster upset, allowing White to cash with more than a dozen points to spare.

White, the Vegas oddsmaker-turned-SportsLine expert with a strong analytical background, has now examined every matchup, every player and every trend for Duke-Clemson and locked in his confident against-the-spread pick. We can tell you he's expecting a low-scoring affair and is leaning Under, but what about the spread, which he's 21-10 picking?

White knows Duke's best shot at covering the spread is more scoring from Grayson Allen. The senior guard has averaged 24 points in Bagley's absence and will need to up his defensive intensity to slow down a Clemson squad that hits 38 percent of its long-range attempts.

But Clemson can keep it within the spread -- or win outright -- by exploiting the paint with Bagley on the sideline. He's a beast on the boards, ripping down over 11 rebounds a game. Bagley was also good for at least one block and steal per outing, but in his absence, Tigers forward Elijah Thomas should be able to effectively post up.

White knows the line on this game is way off. He's sharing his strong point-spread pick over at SportsLine.
