12/30/15 at North Carolina

Result: L 69-80
CU Leading Scorer: Jaron Blossomgame (15)
Key Stat: UNC won the battle of the boards, claiming 67% of their available defensive rebounding opportunities (vs. 55% for Clemson) and 46% on offense (vs. 32% for Clemson)

  • Clemson got off to a good start. It wasn't a "hot" start, but a good one where they forced UNC into 3 turnovers before the 12 minute timeout and created some easy baskets for themselves. The Tar Heels started 0-6 from the field.

  • UNC benefited from some fortunate calls.
