Latest news and updates about the Clemson
Selection Sunday is here, and later this evening we will find out where the North Carolina Tar Heels will land on the bracket. There was some optimism that making a deep run in the ACC Tournament would boost their chances at landing a higher seed, but after getting ran out of the building by Clemson, […]
Well, that was interesting. After getting down by as many as 18 points, the North Carolina Tar Heels made a crazy run over the last three and half minutes to lose by one as Jarin Stevenson’s half court heave came up way short at the buzzer. There are multiple ways to look at this game. […]
Saturday is the final day of regular season ACC Action, and it’s a busy day. Three noon games as Virginia Tech visits Virginia, Notre Dame takes on Boston College, and, win or lose, Georgia Tech plays its last game of the season at Clemson.

The quarterfinals of the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12 and SEC conference tournaments will deliver a number of tasty regular-season rematches. With apologies to No. 7 Oklahoma vs. No. 6 LSU (2:30 p.m. ET, ESPN), No. 11 Ohio State vs. No. 19 Minnesota (2:30 p.m. ET, BTN) and Illinois vs. No. 9 Iowa (6:30 p.m. […]
In Tuesday night’s ACC Action, Virginia nipped Wake Forest, 75-70, UNC survived Clemson, 67-63, Virginia Tech thumped BC, 72-63, and Louisville handled Syracuse, 77-62. We honestly didn’t think that Wake Forest could keep up with Virginia in this one. First, UVA has vastly more size than Wake, and second, the Cavaliers were bound to be […]
In Tuesday’s ACC Action, Wake Forest is at Virginia, Clemson travels up to Chapel Hill, Boston College jets down to Virginia Tech, and Syracuse is off to Louisville. It’s an interesting night, because so many of the coaches have some level of hot seat pressure. Steve Forbes has a bit for Wake Forest, Brad Brownell […]
The regression continues. Louisville remains ofer Littlejohn. Clemson had lost four in a row coming in. Including Ls to underwhelming Virginia Tech and Wake Forest. No problem against a Cardinal team that has lost its way. If in truth it knew where it was going ever. It’s like the agent at AAA gave them the […]
In Saturday’s ACC Action, NC State visits Notre Dame, Florida State heads up to Atlanta to take on Georgia Tech, Louisville cruises over to Clemson, BC heads down to Miami, Pitt drops in on Cal on the West Coast swing, Syracuse checks in with Wake Forest, SMU gets Stanford, and Virginia Tech visits UNC. Here’s […]
Outside the top 75 of KenPom, Risk to Miss the ACCT 18. Georgia Tech (Prev: 17, 2-11): Losers of 9 in a row and 12 of 13, Georgia Tech lost by 26 to Virginia at home and then went to Louisville and lost by 17. 17. Boston College (Prev: 17, 2-12): The Eagles similarly have […]
With just about a month to go before the end of the regular season, you’d better make your NCAA move right about now. Sure, there are the conference tournaments, but do you really want to enter those tournaments on the bubble? Unless you win it, you aren’t guaranteed anything. In the ACC, Duke, UNC, Clemson, … Continue reading »
Indiana football head coach Curt Cignetti was asked about tampering in college football during an appearance on The Triple Option podcast hosted by Urban Meyer, Mark Ingram II and Rob Stone. The question was sparked due to a recent accusation from Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney, who alleged that Ole Miss head coach Pete Golding […]

In Tuesday’s ACC Action, NC State surprised Clemson on the road, 80-76 in overtime, Florida State pulled an impressive upset over Miami, 65-63 and SMU thumped Wake Forest, 91-79. Will Wade said State would need a big win to offset the home loss to Georgia Tech and they got it at Clemson, where the Tigers […]
In Tuesday’s ACC Action, NC State treks down to Clemson, Florida State is off to Miami and SMU visits Wake Forest. We started to say that Will Wade was making his first trip to Clemson, but of course he went to school there and started his coaching career there as well. It’s not like he’s […]

It’s time to change the ACC Football narrative, says ACC Prescription. I have to agree. Mark Richt has become the unsung hero of Miami’s CFP run, according to CanesWarning. RubbingtheRock says Clemson embraces transfer portal with record setting haul. Virginia basketball’s defense is proving it can win in March, according to StreakingtheLawn. NunesMagician has takeaways … Continue reading »
NC State Snapshot After face planting against Virginia, back-to-back road wins look pretty good. Except for the Clemson game, KenPom has the Wolfpack favored in each game for the rest of January. The Wolfpack needs to end January on a winning streak to boost the profile going into a very difficult February. Seven wins in […]
The big question tonight would be how the Irish would mentally rebound after getting defeat snatched from the jaws of victory by some brutal officiating in their last contest against Cal. Unfortunately, this was a game where sheer want-to wouldn’t be enough. Notre Dame was simply beaten by a team that didn’t so much dominate […]
Coach Brad Brownell would never admit it, but tonight’s homecoming matchup in his home state of Indiana probably meant a little more to him than your typical ACC conference game. When the dust settled in South Bend Indiana, Clemson found itself with a convincing 76–61 win at Notre Dame on Saturday night, moving to 14-3 […]
Eli Drinkwitz and Missouri made a strong addition to its staff for the upcoming season by bringing on former Clemson offensive coordinator Garrett Riley as an assistant to pair with new Missouri offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey. The news comes following the departure of former Missouri offensive coordinator Kirby Moore accepting a job as the head […]
In Wednesday’s ACC Action, Virginia canned Cal 84-60, Clemson held on against SMU 74-70, Miami survived Wake Forest 81-77 and Stanford just nipped Virginia Tech 69-68. The Hokies set limiting turnovers as a goal and they accomplished that. Too bad they couldn’t limit Stanford’s freshman star Ebuka Okorie (that just auto-corrected to Ebuka Okra), who […]
If people had questions about the ACC being back, Saturday should have sorted that out. Aside from the close Duke-Florida State game, Virginia clubbed NC State, 76-61, Wake first slipped by Virginia Tech 81-78, Clemson escaped Pitt 73-68, Georgia Tech got by BC 65-53 and SMU upset UNC 97-83. It’s hard to understand what happened […]
Terry Smith talks about leading Penn State as the greatest moment of his life. Clemson was just not cut out to play in the cold. Trebor Pena was named Pinstripe Bowl MVP with a 100-yard receiving day that included an electrifying fourth quarter touchdown. Quinton Martin Jr.’s 101-yard rushing day could lead to big things […]
Dabo Swinney is an unabashed optimist, but at some point, reality has to set in for Dabo. Clemson might be years away from being relevant on the national scene again. Saturday was just more evidence of that. At Saturday’s Pinstripe Bowl, depleted Penn State beat Clemson 22-10. In fairness, Clemson was down nearly 30 players, … Continue reading »
1) Bad weather? No problem Below-freezing temperatures, swirling winds, and flurries of precipitation certainly worked in Penn State’s favor. Both teams struggled with the cold football, but the Nittany Lions proved to be the grittier team in the end. Ryan Barker, who was the clear MVP of the first half, stepped up when his team […]
