Now that the Super Bowl is over, may we return to Clemson basketball?

We have another big game tonight. UNC is having a down year by their standards, but they are still an NCAA Tournament team by most projections. We know they are super talented, but haven't put it all together this year with any level of consistency.
They come into Littlejohn needing a resume-boosting win, so they will be very motivated. They are coming off of a win at home against Pitt that avenged their loss to the Panthers in late January.
This game is a super fast turnaround - 48 hours. Thankfully, UNC played on Saturday as well, so neither team is likely to have the freshest of legs for this one.
Hopefully our home crowd will show up and be loud again. That was really helpful against Duke. We have had a better season than UNC, but they are always a threat due to their talent and pedigree. I do have some concern about us turning the page from our emotional win on Saturday, but this is a veteran team and I am optimistic we will be ready. Brad talked to the team about treating this short turnaround like the NCAA Tournament, where you have to move on quickly and refocus.
Here's to a great performance by our Tigers tonight, and another ACC win! Go Tigers!

This is absolutely crucial game if we want to stay in the hunt for a regular season title. We are the better TEAM.
Lets hope they go out and prove it emphatically.

Atmosphere was great Saturday I expect it to be the same. One thing I have noticed is the crowd and attendance of Clemson games in person the last 15 years. When Duke and and especially UNC came to town a third to a half were their fans. Worst was USC in Greenville. Lately that has not happened and it’s great. I look for the the play of Saturday to continue tonight. I will be there.

No reason we shouldn’t win this game. We are better than them and at home. Time to take the next step and win this conference. Go Tigers!

L 65-73 Away (47) Pittsburgh
L 70-87 Away (2) 2 Duke
Their current record is 14-10 and they're 7-5 in conference play. If Clemson had these same metrics, we would not be in the tournament discussion.
This is nothing short of brand or reputational bias.

UNC isn't in the tournament discussion by most outlets. Only a small handful. Keller doesn't know what he's talking about.

I wonder what their issues are. On paper (recruiting services) they have top 10 talent.

UNC is project in the tournament by 6 out of 86 bracketologists. 7% is not most.

Judge, pretty sure we just killed UNCs tourney chances. Potentially Hubert’s tenure too. What a great 48 hours of Clemson basketball! Thanks!

Does that toad even post after a big win? Hmmmm. Pretty sure he averages about 10+ comments/ day after a loss. Just a guesstimate.

Viztiz, like me, is using credible sources for the facts he posts. You are using one source and assuming it knows all.

One post cites a combination of 86 different brackets which showed a vast majority (93%) didn't think UNC was a Tourney team before we beat them down.
https://web.archive.org/web/20250210073650/http://www.bracketmatrix.com/
And one post cites one singular source that says they were.
Anyone who chooses to believe one singular data point over 86 different ones is living in an echo chamber and sees what they want to see. Its called invincible ignorance.

I don’t have to “think”. I know your assertion was incorrect and provided a source. You referenced “most” which means more than one. Your buddy quotes a single source, ESPN. But their house bracketologist did not have them in. This is easily verifiable via his Twitter feed. So you’re both liars. The question is to what purpose? Why do two real Clemson fans come on a Clemson website and tell lies?
