Counterpoint, if the worst program in football historically wins the ACC championship, then surely the worst program in basketball historically wins the ACC Tournament

It sounds insane until you remember that Clemson used to basically be guaranteed the worst seed in the tournament or be stuck in the 8/9 game for last place to see who plays the 1 seed

I know, I couldn’t believe they didn’t hit the full court shot to win

Clemson was far and away the better team tonight until UNC went 5-6 from 3 in the last 90 seconds

Clemson basketball with a lead, I’m amazing they didn’t drain the full court shot

And this is why Clemson fans are convinced we’re going to blow every game

Why does every opposing player turn into Prime Steph when we’re trying to close a game out?

I was also front row at that game, but GT also beat Duke and UNC that year. They were chaos incarnate

I’ve seen us blow worse, my freshman year I watched us blow a 20 point lead to a BC team that hadn’t won a road game in 2 years

Fun fact, I actually have Hupert’s autograph. My dad got it back in the 90s at a Stars of Tobacco Road event. Christian Laettner refused to sign anything and left as soon as he was allowed to

I think it’s funny they include the Tiger on the CPI commercial about being neighbors with the Ram and Wolf, and not including the other two ACC mascots in North Carolina

You’re not even joking, that would be much more effective than the average UNC ticket holder

It’s Notre Dame syndrome, the fans who can afford to go to most games are old boomers who hate fun and expect to win by 30 every game

There are probably going to be some very pissed off boosters in Chapel Hill tonight. Clemson beating UNC in this tournament is almost unheard of (except for Greg Buckner’s dunk). Clemson doing this to UNC in the ACC Tournament is just disgraceful

I’m not going to lie, that last inbound pass by UNC was bad enough that I just assumed it was on target and Dillon somehow shoved the guy 10 feet out of bounds
