And that’s two.
Clemson men’s basketball never trailed and held on late in grabbing its second-ever win in Chapel Hill, topping the No. 3 North Carolina Tar Heels 80-76 at the Dean Dome Tuesday.
The victory is monumental both for Clemson men’s basketball history, and also more for the short-term NCAA Tournament resume.
The Tigers (15-7, 5-6 ACC) improved to 2-60 all-time versus the Tar Heels in Chapel Hill, but the victory is also the second for Brad Brownell there, after a 79-76 overtime win in 2020. The win was a first in 38 tries for Clemson versus a ranked Tar Heels team in Chapel Hill.
