Thanks, Klemnop! I was saddened to see this wasn't being televised. Clemson really needs to protect their home court, and it looks like they're doing just that.

Any other details you can provide would be appreciated. Is Clemson's D that good, or is Miami just that cold? (Less than a point a minute after dropping 96 on us....)

33 - 19
Miami on an 8-0 run in last 1:30.

Clemson was unconscious from 3 in the first 12 minutes. Rivers had two. Oglesby had two. Hammonds had 1. And the pressure defense was very effective.

Thanks for the indulgence. Once I started I didn't think I should stop.

Hey Klemnop!! I've been trying to msg you on the boards. Sorry about the UNC loss, and I'm really happy for you that they've been able to rebound. Looks like Purnell is finally getting the program to where he wants it to be!!

Way to go Clemson! Very happy for you guys!!

Clemson just stamped their ticket into the tournament, in my opinion. Winning one of their last three against @Maryland, @Ga Tech, and Va Tech will make it a lock.

Miami could have virtually sealed their bid tonight as well with a road win @Clemson. But they're still in decent shape. They just need to avoid any hiccups against UVa, BC, and @FSU. Winning two of three should be enough with their resume, but they really should win all three and remove any doubt.

Big win for Clemson though - after a few years in a row of fading down the stretch, it's nice to see them put themselves in position to make the tourney this year.

Yeah, thanks Klem. Good to see Clemson hit their FT's. I think this definitely puts them in the tourney. I'd have to say that Clem is my 2nd favorite ACC team, b/c I really like Purnell and I went to high school with one of the assistant coaches (Shaka Smart).
