NC State’s ACC Tournament run begins and/or ends starting at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday against a Clemson Tigers team that the Wolfpack hasn’t seen in three months. The winner will advance to play Virginia Tech on Wednesday.
The Les Robinson Invitational went by the wayside with conference expansion, but surely we could consider the game tomorrow an honorary installment. The Pack did finish dead last, after all.
When State and Clemson met in early January, the Tigers prevailed by five points in Raleigh. It was a two-point game with six minutes left, and then NC State went on and did that thing it usually does in crunch time, which is not much.
