That was two of the most satisfying basketball games you can get as a Clemson fan. Hats off to the crowd and Brad and the program for making this such a great extended weekend. The Super Bowl was a lifeless dud in between - we've been the prime time stars of ESPN since Saturday.
We're not perfect by any means and slip-ups ahead are likely as we head into the postseason, but no one else is perfect either so we're in good company. There is something really tough and determined about this group though, and the talent is there and spread out for the occasion that calls. You could see that we were going to be a tough out as the season kicked off. That 3 of our 5 losses needed an OT to accomplish shows a tremendous amount of fight and staying power even though we wound up on the wrong side.
Those were some bright lights shining on our boys these past few days, and they blew the doors off the joint under them. While we might have a goof or two ahead as we wrap the regular, when the wattage turns back up in the ACCT and NCAA's, look out. This group doesn't show up to lose.
