OFFICIAL ACC SEMIFINAL THREAD: NO.3 CLEMSON vs. No.2 Virginia

CUTrevor 2023-03-10 14:14:39


The Tigers are just 2 games away from their first-ever ACC Tournament title after an absolute beat down of NC State last night, 80-54! The Tigers lost to the Hoos in Charlottesville a couple weeks ago 64-57. However, they lost their starting center, Vander Plas to a broken hand in practice the other day, so that will certainly help the Tigers' chances. They also won't have to fight a huge crowd like the Heels would have if they had won last night.

Tip is at approximately 9:30 on ESPN, and I'll have live coverage from Greensboro right here!
