After Virginia's win over Wake Forest on Sunday night, head coach Tony Bennett knew his team's upcoming matchup against Clemson would be tough.
In addition to the Tigers being an up-and-coming team in the ACC, their football team was getting ready to play for a national championship the next night against Alabama.
"I'm sure if Clemson wins the national championship, they'll unveil their team at our game on Saturday," Bennett said after the Wake Forest game. "That'll be a pleasant environment."
The Tigers knocked off Alabama, setting up a championship parade on Friday night and even more momentum for the Clemson basketball team to knock off the visiting 19th-ranked Cavaliers on the hardwood.
