Clemson vs. Alabama is not an Elite Eight matchup that many saw coming prior to the start of the NCAA Tournament, but here we are.
After dispatching the West Region’s top two seeds in the Sweet 16, the Tigers and Crimson Tide are each one win away from a Final Four berth.
Live college basketball odds suggest a competitive matchup on Saturday night with Alabama listed as a 3.5-point favorite.
However, the Action Network’s PRO Projections suggest that spread is four points off the true line, resulting in oodles of value for bettors looking for Saturday’s smartest Clemson vs. Alabama pick.
Let’s take a look.
Clemson vs. Alabama Betting Model Edge
As mentioned above, the Crimson Tide sit at -3.5 at most sportsbooks across the betting market.
But, our data indicates that the wrong team is favored in this Elite Eight matchup.
Specifically, we project Clemson at -0.5, which provides a significant edge — 8.6%, to be exact — when compared to the widely available +3.5.
And as is typically the case, it’s important for bettors to shop for the price, including the vig, as possible.
For example, Caesars, DraftKings and FanDuel are all offering Clemson at +3.5, though their associated vigs are -110, -112 and -115, respectively.
So why pay -115 to take Clemson and the points when it’s so easy to peruse the market and pay five cents less at Caesars?
