We like the Clemson Tigers to defeat the Kentucky Wildcats on Tuesday at 9:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Clemson have won four games in a row, including big ones against San Francisco/Penn State in Daytona Beach.

The Tigers have also won seven straight games played on their home-court, including 16 of their L20.

This is an ACC-team that was very successful last season. They have some experience and will have another good year.

Kentucky lost every single starter from last year's team. The inexperience of having not played together hasn't hurt them yet. But, they've really only had one test which was against a young Duke team.

The Wildcats caught Duke at the perfect time really. The Blue Devils are better than Clemson, but they had not had any hard matchups yet either at the time.

UK have lost back-to-back games this year. Now, they head to a tough environment on the road.

We'll back the home team today. Grab the points.
