Booker leads the way as Clemson stays perfect
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
01/07/2009 -
Clemson, SC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Trevor Booker scored 19 points and the 12th-
ranked Clemson Tigers remained undefeated by surviving a pesky Alabama squad,
66-59.
K.C. Rivers and Terrence Oglesby netted 12 points each for the Tigers (15-0),
who are looking to equal their 17-0 start from two years prior when they were
the last unbeaten team to fall.
It won't be an easy feat to duplicate as a duo of tough ACC foes are next on
the schedule with home dates against NC State and No. 4 Wake Forest followed
by a trip to Chapel Hill to face third-ranked North Carolina.
The Tigers shot only 34.5 percent from the floor in finishing the first half
with a narrow four-point edge but improved to 44.8 percent over the final 20
minutes and held 'Bama to 29.4 percent shooting in that same stretch to come
away with the victory.
Alonzo Gee and Senario Hillman logged 12 points apiece for the Crimson Tide
(10-4), who had a five-game win streak halted in playing their first true road
game this season. Ronald Steele chipped in 10 points while JaMychal Green had
seven points and 11 rebounds in the loss.
A Gee layup early in the second half gave 'Bama the lead and the teams played
it close until the Tigers exploded for a 17-1 run with Andre Young's triple
capping the surge for a 58-43 lead with just under six minutes to play.
The Tide came back, though, with a 9-2 spurt with Steele's layup pulling the
visitors to within six with 30 seconds left. Booker followed by hitting just
1-of-2 at the line but Steele misfired on a three and Booker made both of his
next two attempts from the stripe to seal the win.
The visitors jumped out to a 12-5 lead in the early going but Clemson used a
20-8 run through the middle stages of the half to go up by five, 25-20, with 6
1/2 minutes left.
The Tigers extended their lead to six on a slam from Demontez Stitt later in
the frame before a jumper by Demetrius Jemison cut the Tide's deficit to 33-29
at the break.
