Well thats the Clemson of old on display, cant come through in the clutch...I'm writing this after just yelling at the screen in utter disbelief so excuse the harshness of this re-cap...
So just got done watching that pathetic display by the Tigers. Once again with a potential #5 or #6 ranking staring them in the face the team chokes and bad. This is their first bad loss of the season, Wake, NC, and Florida State all good teams but Virginia is coming off of an eight game loosing streak. Virginia has only been up at half three times during the ACC season at the half. Clemson came out flat once again--a troubling theme this year and we were cold in the first half. Couldnt hit anything. We still had a chance to win in the last minute of regulation but after shooting above 75% for the game, KC cant make the free throw that would have sealed the game. It was on the road but this is an 7-13 team coming in. Dont know if we got caught looking ahead but once again Clemson is sent back down to earth with this poor performance. I think this is a good team--the best Clemson bball team in a very long time, but we arent top ten material yet-we are still a solid top 20, probably top 15 but this loss should have been a gimme and hurts our chances to win the ACC regular season title. Honestly I could care less about that but want the first day off in the ACC tournament. Cant loose anymore easy games in conference. Soft defense, Grant got in foul trouble again early and too many turnovers-7 for Booker...got to regroup before a pivitol Maryland game...
