Tigers look to continue ACC winning streak at Notre Dame |
Clemson looks to extend a winning streak to its longest since a 9-0 start with this weekend's trip to Notre Dame.
The Tigers (20-8, 10-7 ACC) and Fighting Irish (11-17, 6-11) play for the first time this season on Saturday night, with Brad Brownell's Clemson team seeking a four-game winning streak. Tipoff in Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center is set for 7:52 p.m. Tom Werme and Jordan Cornette will call the broadcast for the CW. Don Munson, Tim Bourret and Ben Milstead will broadcast the game on the Clemson Athletic Network. ESPN's matchup predictor gives Clemson an 81.6% win projection. KenPom ranks Clemson 24th overall in rating (No. 20 offense/No. 50 defense), while Notre Dame is 129th (No. 265 offense/No. 28 defense). • This marks the 12th all-time meeting between Clemson and Notre Dame. The Tigers trail the series 3-8 and are 1-4 on the road against the Irish. Clemson won the last meeting 87-64 on March 4, 2023. • Head Coach Brad Brownell and Head Coach Micah Shrewsberry matched up last season when Clemson hosted Penn State in the finale of the ACC/Big Ten Challenge. The Tigers won that game 101-94 in two overtimes. • Brownell and Shrewsberry share more than just one November matchup in 2023. Shrewsberry, like Brownell, is from the state of Indiana. Brownell attended and played at DePauw from 1988-91. Shrewsberry served as an assistant at DePauw from 2001-03.
