Does the #2 team normally get beat on their home floor?

I wish like he&& our team would win them all. But the realist in me says we will not make the NCAA tourney. NIT again.

the #2 team on the road.
Also, they were unranked to start the season so they #### sure earned that #2 ranking.
It's not like we're losing to Pitt.

Not really just on tonight. My observation is that other ACC teams get a lot better as the year goes on. We don't. Expect Wake to beat us next. I predict, that we only win 3 more conference games this year. We simply don't get any better as the year goes on. Never have.

blowing this game way out of proportion.
Again, we are playing the #2 team on the road. You don't win those games the vast majority of the time.

Since UVA woke up with 15 to play in the first half, how have we done? It's easy to play against an uninspired team until they wake up. We will lose at GT by 7.

We were a missed free throw from taking State to OT in one of our worst games, after they beat Duke handedly the game before in the same building.
You really want to use UNC as a measuring stick for a team? That's pretty weak.

That’s a good question, but I know it isn’t based on winning at UNC. Doesn’t make much sense to really even bring that up to determine how good or bad this or any other Clemson basketball team is.

Stop feeling bad for yourself, how often have you seen this team ranked in the top 20? How often have you seen this team undefeated at home in late January? How often have you seen this team have 5 guys scoring in double digits?

We've been 10-0, or 9-1 when January rolled around a lot of times. Then we fold like a paper napkin. Why should this year be any different?

So you’re talking about through 10 games, we’re through 20 and are already one win off from last season’s total.
Not sure what point you’re trying to make.

Agree. We'll be under .500 in the ACC, my prediction.

How about 60+ ??
You eventually get to a certain point where you just try to enjoy the winning and the losing doesn't bother you nearly as much.
It's a game after all. And we've won 16 times this season already.
No one was doing any of this complaining after the Notre Dame win just last week.
