Clemson is coming off a 63-55 win over Georgia Tech, its ninth straight over the Yellow Jackets. It is the program's second-longest winning streak over another ACC team in school history.

Clemson looks for its ninth conference win, which would be a first since Brad Brownell's first season at the school in 2010-11.

Clemson is in search of its fifth ACC road win, which would tie the 1986-87 team for the most in one season in school history.

QUICK HITS

Clemson broke an 18-game losing streak in Winston-Salem in its last trip to Lawrence Joel Coliseum with a 78-58 victory over Wake Forest in 2012.

This is the 15th time in 61 seasons Clemson has amassed at least eight ACC regular season wins. The program has had just seven nine-win seasons.

The Tigers have overcome five halftime deficits and won this season, just one shy of the school record set by the 1989-90 team.

Clemson had an official RPI of No. 67 Monday, an improvement of 120 spots from the final ratings of 2012-13. It is the largest jump by an ACC team.

Head Coach Brad Brownell is the first Clemson coach in history to win at least eight ACC games in three of his first four seasons.
