TALK ABOUT “CLEMSONING …”

Clemson University’s men’s basketball team extended a record run of futility this week – falling 80-69 to the seventh-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels in Chapel Hill, N.C.

The defeat marked Clemson’s fifty-eighth straight road loss to North Carolina.  How many games have the Tigers won in Chapel Hill?

Umm … none. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

It hasn’t been close, either.  In fact twenty-six of the Tar Heels’ last twenty-eight home wins over Clemson have been by double digits.  Is this ineptness an NCAA record?  You better believe it.  The previous record for consecutive home wins by one opponent over another was set by Princeton over Brown – 52 games spanning from 1929-2002.

This streak started in 1926.  You know … when our founding editor’s hero Calvin Coolidge was president.

Clemson has come close to breaking the streak several times – most infamously in 2008.  That year the Tigers enjoyed an 11-point lead over the Tar Heels with just three minutes remaining.  Somehow, they found a way to cough up that advantage, falling 103-93 in double overtime.  They also found a way to lose in 2002 – the year North Carolina went just 8-20 under former coach Matt Doherty.

Will the Tigers ever win a game in Chapel Hill?

No.  They will not.

Talk about “Clemsoning.”

Clemson does not have a bad basketball team. Like its football team, it is simply in the wrong conference.

The football team is not a fraud, but the conference is very weak.

Lol, a little bitter on CFP day, eh Folks? Maybe go after the Clemson debate team next. Really not improving the stature of this little stretchmark of the internet with stories like this. Glad I use @dbl0ckplus, I would not want to support your sponsors (i.e. the politicians you endorse).

Until USC can match Clemson’s academic ranking and get into the top 5 again: enjoy the success of your equestrian team, sing along with Harris, watch Muschamp and Frankieboy on the sidelines but most of all : STFU.

Ohio State is by far the best team in the country.They fucked up.Clemson has as good as chance as any team although I do believe Houston would beat any in the BCS.

I like MSU if Cook is healthy as he can hit a couple of big plays.

Bible Thumper December 31, 2015 at 8:17 pm

I think MSU is the better team, but I want to beat BAMA.

Second half shutout without Shaq Lawson. Hope he will be able to play for the NC. Has a srained ankle.

show boating? January 4, 2016 at 10:32 am

I noticed he was dancing on the play he hurt himself about a sack. Did he pull an Gus Freotte or Martin Gramatica and hurt himself celebrating? He did not play again after that sack and dance.

Bible Thumper January 4, 2016 at 11:47 am

Actually it was his knee on the second play of the game. He got the sack later.

No argument there, it’s all about showboating now. Get rid of the 3-point line or move it back 3 feet and we’ll see fundamental basketball being played again.
