CLEMSON – Boston College rallied from a 23-point first-half deficit and didn’t hold a lead until the final seconds in handing Clemson a 70-68 defeat in Littlejohn Coliseum Saturday evening.
It was the first road win for Boston College, coached by former Brad Brownell assistant coach Earl Grant, in 23 months. The Eagles improve to 7-8 overall and 2-3 in the ACC, while Clemson falls to 10-7 overall and 2-4 in league play. The loss, considering the Eagles’ struggles this season, dismal performance on the road, and the Tigers’ big lead, stands as one of the worst of the Brownell era.
