Finally, a big game in Death Valley. And while Clemson can’t win the ACC Atlantic with a win over Wake Forest Saturday, the Demon Deacons can clinch the title with a win over the Tigers.
It’s a common scene in Major League Baseball and in the NBA to see teams clinch championships away from home, something we saw the Atlanta Braves do this past postseason. The Braves had to travel back to Houston for Game 6 against the Astros and took care of business on the Astros’ home field. When you’re a fan, a player, or a coach of that home team, it’s hard to see the champagne corks popping inside your home.
