OK...so I lied 
So, on with this masochistic futility and no more whining like a bitch. Here is some more amateurish analysis from a square's point of view.
All stats/averages are from league play only.
N. Carolina -3 @ Clemson - OK, N. Car. is just 3-4 on the road, Clemson 4-3 at home. Clemson gives up around 61.7 ppg, the Tar Heels 68.7,
but N.C. is averaging around 14.5 more ppg on offense, 72 vs 57.7. In Clemson's last 5 games their offensive avg has dropped to just 55 ppg.
At first I was thinking Clemson at home but after looking at it closer I think Clemson is going to have play a hell of a defensive game to keep
up on offense. Guessing NC 67 Clem 62.
Drexel -2.5 @ Old Dominion - ODU is just 2-14 and just 1-7 at home since league play started. Drexel has revenge for a 12 pt loss at home
to ODU, a game in which ODU hit 8 of 16 3-pointers for 50% which is ridiculous considering their 27% season avg. Drexel was 4-2 on the road until
losing their last 2 games by a combined 3 pts, one in double OT, and against two top 3 league teams. Drexel hasn't lost more than 2 in a row since
a 3 game slide in games 2-4 of league play (one was a 3 pt loss and one an OT loss).
South Carolina +9.5 vs Missouri - Missouri has been a terrible road team going just 1-6 so far with the only win against last place Miss St. who has
been losing huge to everyone lately. At least S. Car. has a few decent efforts. In their 7 home games they are just 2-5 but 3 of the losses have been
by 7 or less, and their last home game was a W vs Mississippi. The Gamecocks only lost by 6 at Missouri earlier so considering how poorly the Tigers
have played on the road the +9.5 looks pretty decent.
Leaning slightly toward Virginia -PK but I always seem to pick the wrong side where Duke is concerned.
