Clemson seemed to be rolling right along without Donte Grantham, leading 23-16 with six minutes left in the first half, but the Tigers fell into an incredible scoring drought that allowed Virginia to not only close the gap, but run away with the game.
After building that 7-point lead, Clemson (16-4, 5-3 ACC) scored just four points in the following 16-plus minutes of game time, and when they looked up the lead had turned into a 14-point deficit. From there it was much of the same, as the Cavaliers (19-1, 8-0 ACC) stifled the Tigers on their way to a 61-36 win in Charlottesville.
