CLEMSON – A three-game losing streak in late February is not optimal for a bubble team chasing a berth in the NCAA Tournament.
No. 16 Florida St. rode a 15-2 run to end the first half to a dominant 77-64 victory over Clemson Tuesday night at Littlejohn Coliseum, giving the Tigers a three-game losing streak since knocking off a ranked Virginia Tech team on February 9th.
Clemson falls to 15-11 overall and 5-8 in ACC play, while Florida St. improves to 21-5 overall and 9-4 in the league.
Florida State won a school-record eighth consecutive ACC game – they have won each of their games since defeating Clemson 77-68 on January 22nd in Tallahassee.
