ACC Tourney: Clemson-Florida State game updates
Mar 12, 2020, 11:28 AM

We're about an hour away from tip for a game with some big postseason implications between 1-seed (and No. 4-ranked) Florida State (26-5) and 8-seed Clemson (16-15).
The Seminoles are vying for an NCAA Tournament 1-seed and Clemson is just trying to make a postseason tourney.
The game will be held without fans in attendance due to coronavirus precautions, as will all of the ACC Tournament games as they are scheduled. ACC commissioner John Swofford says the situation is "fluid" and their decisions on whether to play the games at all could be "hourly." Swofford said about an hour ago that the afternoon session here is set to play, however.
Clemson and FSU split the season series with a Tigers team light on the bench losing by 19 in Tallahassee and the Tigers upsetting the then No. 6 'Noles, 70-69, in Littlejohn just under two weeks ago.

that the SEC decided to play their games and media guy overhead another AD say if we have to cancel this tournament then we have to cancel the entire spring sports slate as well. So, they all decided to move forward with playing.

And ESPN just reported that ALL NCAA tournaments that are not cancelled will not have fans in attendance...in ALL SPORTS until otherwise decided.
Since we are delaying the pandemic, cancel your plane tickets to Omaha.
I hope it's over before next school year starts.
My biggest concern is the Masters. Those guys don't cancel anything because they're pushed, but the pressure to restrict attendance will be incredible.
And when they do, Augusta's economy will lose millions.
I might lose a million or so myself.

If we had the last win over them, doesn't that make us the champ?

No, that only happens in the SEC. It just means more.
