UNC Basketball: Clemson’s historic streak in Chapel Hill is over

Well, it finally happened.

The Clemson Tigers ended a 94-year, 59-game losing streak in Chapel Hill on Saturday afternoon and they did it in comeback fashion, stunning the Tar Heels 79-76 in overtime. Clemson didn’t have their first lead of the game until overtime and to get there they had to go on a big run.

UNC came out hot in this one, jumping out to an 8-point lead and holding it for 39 minutes of the game. The Tar Heels were led by senior Brandon Robinson, who scored 19 of his career-high 27 points in the first half.
