Before the Clemson Tigers look to avenge last year’s to Alabama on Monday night in the College Football Playoff, the Tigers basketball team will be looking to pay back Notre Dame for four straight losses on Saturday afternoon in Purcell Pavilion. The Irish took down the Tigers last year at Clemson 89-83.

The Tigers come in at 11-3 (1-1 ACC) with losses to Xavier, Oklahoma, and North Carolina. Last time out Clemson took the Tar Heels to overtime, but fell 89-86. There is no easy out in the ACC this season, so the Irish will have to bring their A-game.
