Clemson v Illinois on Tuesday night 7-0 v 6-0 should be a pretty good one.

You guys almost lost. You need to play better than that. We need a strong ACC showing this year.

Wake, Duke, CU and UNC are looking good.
 
Almost lost is still a W doesnt matter if you win by 20 or 2 as long as you win. unless your playing USC in which case you should win by as much as physically possible. We would have won by 15-20 if that kid hadnt had a career night. :bang: I dont think he even missed a shot til the second half.
 
This bball thread is pretty dead. Big early season game on tonight as far as the ACC goes Clemson at Miami should be a solid one. My strategy, take some walkon, have him smack McClinton, watch McClinton try to hit him back and miss but get thrown out of the game, win by 20 because the best player on the other team is a thug.
 
Another win for the Tigers yesterday, Clemson has Alabama, NC State, and Wake all at home before the showdown. As long as we play our game we should at worst have 1 loss coming into the dean dome.
 
Even if Clemson beats Wake and then loses to UNC we would still be ahead of you both in the ACC. :flipoff2: Wake cause we have the head to head UNC cause you choked at home to some scrubs.


I'm a maybe leaning no at this time. Katie hasn't found a job yet so I'm paying for everything which means fun stuff like watching Clemson's first win in the Dean Dome get scrapped, along with any good beer I could have bought for watching it if I can't go. If she hears something this week I am in though.

Andy and others insert mocking here.

Hypothetical situation based on the other comments, nowhere in there did I say Clemson is better then anyone else it was merely what the standing would be if we beat Wake and lose to UNC. :flipoff2: Glad you guys didn't choke last night it'll keep all the luster of Saturday's game intact. Biggest game in Clemson since at least 1997.
 
I wasn't worried about choking last night. This Wake team is too talented and poised to just throw in the towel.

Any road win in the ACC is a good one so I am happy we won, and won convincingly. The 20 point winning margin seems closer than much of the game really was...

Anyway, Saturday should be a good one. I remain cautiously optimistic but I will say this is the most talented starting five Wake has had in a long time. We are really young but our skill, athleticism, chemistry and drive more than make up for that - at least up to this point in the season. We are deep, tall and long as well and present problems in the paint on both ends of the court.

I haven't seen Clemson play much this year but I did catch the first half of your game against NC State last weekend. It was brutal to watch, both teams looked horrible.

I am sure you'll be ready to play come Saturday and Littlejohn will be rowdy and loud. It will be another tough road game for the Deacs and we will surely get your best shot.

Any idea / guess as to what the line will be??????

And speaking of 1997, that was a good year for the Deacs in Littlejohn... :flipoff2:
