The Clemson men’s basketball team remained ranked in the latest Associated Press basketball poll on Monday despite Saturday’s 35-point home loss to Virginia.
The Tigers fell eight spots from No. 12 to No. 20 in the latest poll. The Cavaliers, by the way, moved up five places to No. 13, while Virginia Tech moved up four to No. 16.
Clemson (9-2, 3-2 ACC) was embarrassed by the Cavs in an 85-50 loss at Littlejohn Coliseum. It marked Virginia’s largest margin of victory over a ranked team regardless of the venue.
For Tigers’ head coach Brad Brownell, it was just a disappointing effort by him, his coaches, and his players.
