Even the most optimistic of us would not have said that the Tigers ‘could’ make the big dance. Even with several top notch wins the idea in still making the tournament is far fetched! But, it’s possible. I’m anxious to see how this Tiger team responds to the intense pressure of tonites game. A top five finish in the league is still a possibility. Who would have predicted that. Certainly not me!

true. I am always happy for any finish in top half of league. Given the poor start and early injuries they have come a long way. I want us to finish ahead of State and ND at the very least. I'd love to see us win the last 2 reg season games

just keep up with live stats/twitter (I do DVR the games). If close at the end I tune in to the last minute or so. It has worked out pretty well for the most part. Who knew I had such power.

I think that they will play well tonight; more concerned about Friday's game with only two days rest.

The Tigers seem to play best without a long layover between games.

"The Pit and the Pendulum". Just when you write them off, they win a big game.
Then, just when you start to believe, we lose to a team we should easily handle, yet again.
Welcome to basketball's version of "The Tommy Bowden Chronicles".
ps,
If we follow the normal s-cript, we lose to the Hoagies tonight. Say it ain't so......

how the heck we'd even win more than 1 game that month after going 1-6 from the Colorado game through the Miami game in Nov/Dec. Tonight is a huge game being mid-week on the road. But man, win the next 2 to get to 17-13 and we are poised to make the tournament. Win a couple of ACCT games and I have to think we're there.
Regardless of whether we make it or not, this has been a remarkable turnaround and tremendous coaching job by Brad. And if we go from being 6-7 at the end of December with some of the bad losses we had to making the tournament with wins at UNC, vs Duke, vs Louisville and vs FSU in a rebuilding year with really low expectations...it's an all-time great coaching job. Not just all-time great at Clemson.

I believe if we win 2 ACCT games I think we will be solidly in cause it would add a win against a tournament team like UVA, Duke, FSU, or Louisville.
We would have 19 wins with key regular season wins vs #10 Louisville, #7FSU, and #12Duke along with our Colgate win. It would also include an additional key win against one of the above or UVA depending on who we played in ACCT 2nd game. This would put us finishing the season on a 8-2 run with wins against FSU, Louisville, and whomever we played in 2nd ACCT game.

Colgate win is a huge bullet point on the resume. They were the consensus #1 team in the nation when we beat them and most sports writers were calling them the best mid major team in the history of the ultraverse.
