Tigers seek rebound hosting Syracuse


by -

Clemson men's basketball (19-8, 11-5) returns home to take on Syracuse (16-11, 9-7) Wednesday night.

Tipoff in Littlejohn Coliseum is set for 7 p.m. ET. Wes Durham and Dan Bonner will call the broadcast for ACCN. Don Munson and Tim Bourret will broadcast the game on the Clemson Athletic Network.

The Tigers are a 3.5-point favorite.

• Clemson is given a 75.7% win projection by ESPN's BPI metric. The Tigers are now rated 84th by KenPom with the No. 103 offense and No. 69 defense. The Orange are rated 98th overall with the No. 80 offense and No. 135 defense.

• Clemson will face Syracuse for the 14th time in program history.

• The Tigers lead the series 7-6, including a 5-1 record at home.

• Clemson enters the Syracuse game with an 11-5 record, the best 16 game start of the league schedule in Clemson history. The Tigers still have four conference games left, but need just one conference win to break the school record for conference wins in a season. Clemson won 11 Southern Conference games in 1951-52 (11-4) under Banks McFadden, and won 11 under Brad Brownell (11-7) in 2017-18.
