Tip is 8:00 in the Carrier Dome and will he televised on Raycom. I'll be in a plane during the game, but I'll have notes on the game pisted here by morning. Tigers are 10-4 and 0-1 after losing at Duke in the ACC opener on Sat. They beat Cuse in the Carrier Dome a couple years ago, and Cuse went on to the Final Four that year. The Tigers' next game will be Saturday at home against undefeated UVA after the National Championship Parade. |

I just landed in Atlanta. Tigers lost 61-53, falling to 10-5 with a tough home game against undefeated UVA next on Saturday. Tough start to the ACC schedule, but if the Tigers stay healthy I believe this is an NCAA Tourney team. HIGHLIGHTS: |

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Clemson University men’s basketball made a late push in the second half but could not overcome a game-high 15-point deficit in its 61-53 loss to Syracuse on Wednesday night. The Tigers (10-5, 0-2 ACC) were paced once again by Marcquise Reed who finished with a game-high 16 points. Reed also collected six rebounds, three assists and three steals in the contest. With his third rebound of the night, Reed became just the 11th player in program history to amass at least 1,000 points, 300 rebounds, 200 assists and 100 steals in a career. He also surpassed former teammate and Tiger standout forward Donte Grantham on the all-time scoring list and now ranks 33rd in Clemson history. Elijah Thomas was the first Tiger to reach double-figures and finished with 13 points to go along with seven rebounds. Despite an eight-point deficit at halftime and committing eight turnovers on its first 11 possessions of the second half, the Tigers were able to close to within just six of the Orange (11-4, 2-0 ACC) at 56-50 with 3:46 to play, but could not get over the hump. Clemson returns to the friendly confines of Littlejohn Coliseum for its ACC home opener on Saturday, Jan. 12 against No. 4/1 Virginia.
