CHAPEL HILL, NC – A daring comeback, sharp shooting, momentum swings, underdogs and prohibitive favorites – Clemson’s win over North Carolina had it all. And Aamir Simms predicted it would happen.
Hollywood couldn’t have scripted the end to an oh-for-59-streak any better than the Tigers who beat the Tar Heels 79-76 in overtime Saturday evening to claim its first-ever victory in Chapel Hill.
North Carolina was up by 10 with 1:55 to play before Clemson came storming back to tie the game on a Simms’ three to tie the game at 70-70 with three seconds remaining.
