ACC Roundup - It’s Early In A Weird Season, But Look Who’s In First Place

In Tuesday night’s ACC Action, Virginia Tech knocked off Miami 80-78 and Clemson got a double-digit win over Florida State.

It’s being called an upset, but is it really?

Clemson’s resume is really impressive. The Tigers have an 11 point win over Purdue, a 16 point win over Maryland, an eight point win over Alabama and now a 10 point win over Florida State.

More impressively, the Tigers outscored FSU by 15 in the second half.

Clemson also forced 17 turnovers, which is not bad, and also killed the ‘Noles on the boards, 49-35.

The Tigers also crushed FSU from the line, hitting 24-33 to FSU’s 6-9.
