Noles already get an offensive rebound on the first possession after a missed 3. Rebounding will be an issue tonight with the Noles' size. They have a couple 7-footers including a 7'4 starter. |

Tigers have shot just four 3's in the half after going 7-16 in the first half. And they have yet to shoot a free throw after going 8-9 from the line in the first half. Add in the 8 turnovers, and that's why the big lead has vanished. |

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Clemson University men’s basketball had its four-game win streak snapped in overtime at Florida State on Wednesday night, 81-79. The Tigers (20-5, 9-4 ACC) led by 12 at the break. In the second half, the Seminoles (18-8, 7-7 ACC) used a 15-2 run to get back into the game – eventually tying it with eight seconds to play in regulation to eventually force overtime. Florida State would outlast the Tigers in the extra period for the win. Marcquise Reed finished with a team-high 23 points in the effort. Clemson committed 21 turnovers in the contest which led to 29 Seminole points. The Tigers will return to action on Sunday, Feb. 18when it hosts Duke at 1 p.m. from Littlejohn Coliseum. Reply |
