GREENVILLE — Clemson basketball Coach Brad Brownell has said it all year. If his Tigers play well and play at a high level, they can beat just about anyone. The caveat – the other team can’t play as well.
That’s what happened in Monday’s 89-83 loss to Notre Dame at the Bon Secours Wellness Center in Greenville. Though Clemson scored 54-second half points and connected on 53-percent of its shots, the Irish played just as well. They made 51-percent of their 57 shots and were 10 of 22 from behind the three-point line, while tallying 54-second half points as well.
