As the first NCAA Tournament game for Rutgers is drawing near, I was fortunate to speak with Ryan Kantor of Shakin The Southland, SB Nation’s Clemson site to find out more about the Scarlet Knights’ first round opponent. With a sixth place finish in the ACC and several notable wins this season including NCAA Tournament teams Alabama, Purdue and Maryland, there is no doubt the Tigers will make for a difficult game. Let’s tip things off here.
AB: Clemson had a great start to the season but comes into the NCAA Tournament having lost two of its last three, including a loss to a bad Miami team in the ACC Tournament.
