The Tigers got off to a slow start, particularly defensively, and found themselves trailing 23-24 with 10:23 in the first half. Just as we were starting to worry, they settled in and dominated for stretches of the game en route to a 100-80 victory.
Clemson’s offense had their way with a poor Bulldog defense. The Tigers 100 points is the most scored in the Brownell era. Aamir Simms was the offensive player of the game scoring 16 points on 7-8 shooting. He got valuable experience as a freshman, starting after Donte Grantham’s knee injury and further offseason growth was evident tonight.
