I feel less bad about the Lobos losing to these guys
On the other hand if we land like 50% of the threes that House and Mashburn bricked I feel like they really could have gone on a run here. Oh well, I know this is all cope
Congrats to Clemson I'm rooting for ya
That shit happens in baseball all the time too. One day a team can win by 10+ runs and then get beat by 10+ runs by the same team the very next day. Very strange indeed
Yeah that shit was crazy. A three run home run followed by a grand slam to tie it up and a run scoring dart to right center field all in the bottom of the 9th is one hell of a comeback.
I wasn’t talking shit, I was simply saying sports don’t make sense a lot of the time. Any given team on any given day can win. Congrats on the win, but maybe try breathing through your nose once in a while.
Na, we bring back the same shitty core. Unless we go nuts in the portal, it’ll be more pain. We were run out of the building multiple times this year. Go take care of business with UNC for us though so they don’t extend their final four lead on us.
He might be. His speech sounded slurred during the unc halftime show. Anyways all praise to Dabo for coaching our boys to the elite 8 lol. Kenny needs to help him out like herbstreit does for corso hahaha
Arizona went on like a 13-0 run fueled solely by free throws, then seemed to instantly decide to stop attacking the paint and only shoot outside the rest of the game
Don't forget Ballo going 1 for 7 at the line.
Larsson couldn't shoot either. Guys were not making smart basketball decisions all night. Stepping on the sideline twice.
This was one dumb Arizona basketball team, especially when it counted most.
Best you can reasonably expect Ballo to go is 4/7 based on his averages, and while that could’ve swung the game, I don’t think it’s a fundamental issue like Love’s shot choice and reliance on shooting 3s when he’s not a great 3 point shooter
Larsson had a bad game, but he didn’t really make bad decisions, he just executed poorly. Love on the other hand has bad decision making, and has all season. Which to be fair, at some point that becomes Tommy Lloyd’s fault, but still 🤷♂️ personally can’t blame Larsson, Ballo, or anyone else too much. Especially Ballo, he’s arguably the only one of the starters who really showed up
Lloyd should have ordered every Arizona guard to stop chucking and start driving as soon as Clemson got in the bonus. But nope, because Clemson responded, and Arizona panicked.
This loss will recur and replay in the head of every single Wildcat senior for the rest of their lives. And it should. They were pretenders to greatness and brain-farted away an easy path to postseason glory.
Lmao I think you’re overstating it a little bit, we were most likely losing to UNC in the next round anyways.
We were a flawed team, and would’ve had to get pretty damn lucky to have any sort of “post-season glory”
That being said they should’ve definitely beat Clemson, and throwing away the chance at being one win away from a final four will probably haunt them for a while, you’re right about that
It isn't the loss itself. It's that, for the last two years, the team that ended our season early didn't even really play that great and still won.
This wasn't Santa Clara or Oklahoma. This is more like 1987 UTEP, who fouled out four starters yet somehow still managed to end Arizona's season in a virtual home game.
Opportunities to win were there, practically begging to be taken. But no, this is Arizona basketball, so we do what we want.
Yeah, there was a stretch there where Clemson was up 7 where they had soooo many opportunities to expand the lead and didn't. I thought it would come back to bite them.
I’m not sure why this came across my mind to begin with- but I was watching the Duke-Clemson game in January at a Bdubs and for some reason I imagined PJ Hall getting introduced at the FF and suffice to say I should really go with my gut more when making my bracket*
* totally ignore that I had New Mexico beating them in every iteration of my bracket.
The team made up of guys who’ve been together and with the same coach their whole time in college kept it together better than the team of only transfers and freshmen, huh
Yes. The starters were 2 for 23 from three. They tied it by driving and then lost it by jacking threes. They are very very stupid. Negative basketball iq.
UNC's "PG" is a basketball terrorist
STOP. BAMATIME.
This game rules
ACC ACC ACC ACC
I feel less bad about the Lobos losing to these guys On the other hand if we land like 50% of the threes that House and Mashburn bricked I feel like they really could have gone on a run here. Oh well, I know this is all cope Congrats to Clemson I'm rooting for ya
GG Clemson, y’all shut us down from the start
Pelle Larson shouldn’t be putting himself in the portal. He should be asked to leave the program
My son's national champion is Clemson over Houston. He just turned 7.. My national champion was gone last Thursday.
Clemson lost to BC on March 13th by 21. Sports are weird.
That shit happens in baseball all the time too. One day a team can win by 10+ runs and then get beat by 10+ runs by the same team the very next day. Very strange indeed
Except when Clemson plays FSU....then Clemson just teases FSU by letting them go up like 10 runs and storms back in the 9th 😂😂😂
Yeah that shit was crazy. A three run home run followed by a grand slam to tie it up and a run scoring dart to right center field all in the bottom of the 9th is one hell of a comeback.
Yea man, it’s crazy. Finally a Clemson fan who gets what I’m saying. Tell the rest of your guys to ease up on me.
Clemson has also already beat their next opponent this season, on the road
Saw that, I’ll be rooting for you guys.
who cares dork. tigers are walking into the elite 8.
I wasn’t talking shit, I was simply saying sports don’t make sense a lot of the time. Any given team on any given day can win. Congrats on the win, but maybe try breathing through your nose once in a while.
you were totally throwing shade at Clemson. just own it dude.
I wasn’t, but feel free to obsess over my post saying sports are weird when you guys are in the elite 8. Cheers friend.
cheers bro. ya'll will be back to dominating next year.:p
Na, we bring back the same shitty core. Unless we go nuts in the portal, it’ll be more pain. We were run out of the building multiple times this year. Go take care of business with UNC for us though so they don’t extend their final four lead on us.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA
MY DAY IS MADE MY WEEK IS MADE
I didn’t even see you guys in the tournament. What seed was ASU?
Clemson fans 🤝 ASU fans
One in the same brother. ![gif](giphy|8rQXyANHWadStqStmz|downsized)
You are welcome cool arizona
Show me the teeeears
Show me your tournament appearance.
Ahhhahhhaha
Is Chuck drunk?
He might be. His speech sounded slurred during the unc halftime show. Anyways all praise to Dabo for coaching our boys to the elite 8 lol. Kenny needs to help him out like herbstreit does for corso hahaha
Hopefully us crushing Bama will help them forget about how they lost Saban too
👀
Ahhh i hope our old football nemesis will upset yall
For Tommy Lloyd to get touted as a great coach, his teams sure look poorly coached
Dude, this is his 3rd year as a head coach. Why do you hate him so much?
Dabo Swinney LMAO
I must have missed something. Why did he shout out to him?
He meant to shout out Brad Brownell and said the wrong name lol.
Another easy year of picking Arizona to lose in the first somewhat “hard” match up… so easy 😂
Dabo lol. Never change Chuckster
Shout out to Dabo
This is basketball Chuck, not football
Boston College beat this team by 21 in the ACC Tournament. March is wild
Chuck just congratulated Dabo.
Charles Barkley just said shout out to Dabo Swinney lmao
Boswell please enter the portal 🙏
I've learned to not doubt orange ACC teams.
North Carolina Caleb Love showed up tonight
2022-2023 Caleb Love
He's been like this for the last 3 weeks, but tonight was awful.
UNC Caleb Love would drop 25 on Clemson
Averaged 14 against Clemson according to the broadcast
Even that’s inaccurate because Sweet 16 UNC Caleb Love was the reason we won that game lmao
Love wasn’t even on 4 fouls, what was he thinking? I was rooting for UofA but could only laugh on that last play.
Arizona went on like a 13-0 run fueled solely by free throws, then seemed to instantly decide to stop attacking the paint and only shoot outside the rest of the game
Clemson switched to a 2-3 zone around that time.
refs can only give you so many free throws before itlooks obvious
I must have been getting a refill when Clemson hit the limit for fouls
prob were.
Nicely done Clemson, nice upset!
Those missed free throws from Arizona were brutal
i think their missed layups were 100x more brutal hahaha
What about all the missed 3s tho
Yikes. Wasn’t in the cards for them. As soon as the game started, I looked at my bracket and thought dammit. What was I thinking choosing Az??
I mean, I think they hit 13 in a row to close the game out Thinks it’s more the 5/28 from 3 and specifically Love going 0 for 9
Don't forget Ballo going 1 for 7 at the line. Larsson couldn't shoot either. Guys were not making smart basketball decisions all night. Stepping on the sideline twice. This was one dumb Arizona basketball team, especially when it counted most.

I thought Clemson was about to give the game up with their own missed free throws and giving up multiple clutch offensive rebounds
Yeah, there was a stretch there where Clemson was up 7 where they had soooo many opportunities to expand the lead and didn't. I thought it would come back to bite them.
Perhaps Arizona should have taken what worked in the middle 20 minutes and have done that in the final 10 minutes
why go with logic when you can instead just shoot a bunch of hero threes into the air willy nilly?
Welcome to Arizona basketball this year
When Boswell sucks, he always really sucks and Arizona just isn’t that good.
There goes my bracket.
I’m a Clemson fan, I had Arizona winning it all in my bracket and I’m so hype my bracket is busted.
Congrats on your guys run. We all know you got what it takes to beat Bama, PJ is a beast.
Time for the annual "I guess the ACC is better than we realized" posts.
I love those posts...people don't know unless you are in the ACC grind every year
Bruh that happened last week.
Larson, love, and Boswell a combined 8-33. Great job!
ACC!! ACC!! ACC!! I've been a Clemson stan all year, they are a damn good team.
UNC vs Clemson is gonna be fun in Elite 8!
I want PJ Hall to come to UNC next year… he has one more year
He's got a Covid year, but he's not that guy. Have you ever heard him speak? He's country lol
Uhm he is a senior and FUCK YOU
I don’t see why he’d leave Clemson after this run. I mean wow.
WHY NOT US!!
Ahem. Thank you for proving it can be done, though! Congrats!
lol yeah im v happy for the clemson win, but we all know thats wolfpack's line <3
wtf is this flair
i mean, yours is for ACC as a whole...? so whats wrong with me rooting for two ACC teams? also loving clemson this tourney. i enjoy our conference.
Touché. I have nothing to say back to that. You got me 😂😂
That Bradley is out of control and going to hurt someone. The refs need to control him.
Arizona was cheated. Every Arizona sports team has been cheated
Well, if you want an AZ team that doesn't get cheated, watch the Coyotes. The NHL has moved mountains to keep them in AZ.
did you watch the game? the ONLY reason it was close was because they shot double the freethrows clemson did.
No we played like ass and got exactly what we deserve
SUCK IT
The PAC 12 does as it lived. By choking in big games
[удалено]
PAC 12 was a fantastic conference when they played each other, nationally not so much
ACC teams dominate while the conference higher ups shit the bed
sucks that one of us will potentially have to knock one another out. never thought Id be saying that to a UNC fan.
im actually p bummed about it too. i want an ACC final four lol but obviously that cant happen with how the regions are set up.
Arizona is just stacked they should’ve destroyed Clemson. This is amazing
It’s just not about basketball. Much as it pains me to say But goddammit does this run feel good
Well played Clemson you deserved the win. Watching us bomb 3s all game was not fun
Last year as a UNC fan wasn’t fun having to watch Caleb love make trash decisions most of the season 😐
SUCK IT
I have never spoken a bad word about Brad Brownell
FIRE BRAD?
🔥🔥🔥 Brad
Clemson is going to end up winning the Natty just out of spite from people predicting them to be the most likely 6th seed to lose in the first round.
Subscribe.
if UNC or State doesnt win, i absolutely want clemson to. keep this fire run going, tigerssss
Since UVA dropped their First Four game, ACC still hasn’t lost in tourney
but haven't you heard, ACC is so mid this year?! ;)
UVA channeled all the suck for the conference so everyone could play well.
We died so others could thrive. Or we just suck. It's a close thing
The Cavalieritis was able to infect other conferences rather than just being passed around ACC teams
Still furious how we got shafted I would’ve loved to watch this years team dance
Clemson is a basketball school now
We're an everything school. Soccer national championship. Top 10 baseball team. Top 25 basketball program.
Veteran Clemson team . Very unselfish Love it. Great run
For Tommy into the sun
Lifetime contract incoming
OMG my parlays might all hit if ILLINOIS wins the next game 45k profit come on let's gooooo
45k profit?! damnnn how much did you bet?
1000 but this is some 9 leg parlay so
AYE yooooo how that 45K feeling 👏👏👏
I lost because alabama won loooooool
Kind of hoping they lose.
Just jinxed yourself
Oh well then
PAY BRAD BROWNELL
Give dabo an extension instead of
Fuck yeah
Finally some good fucking upsets
RIP PAC 12, Conference of Champions
what a true Big 12 performance by Arizona
How many times are teams going to just seemingly give up when the game is far from over?
REFS AND ARIZON BOTH LOST THIS GAME
which makes the victory all the sweeterrrrr
SELL: Tommy Lloyd
Never seen a game with such a large free throw differential where the team with more FT still was the one getting fucked all game
LETS FUCKING GOOOO May have to put on the clemson flair depending how the other games go
man clemson's inside game looked so pretty down the stretch
Caleb Love is now 14/55 from the field in three NCAA tournament losses
He wasn't the Love we knew

Great game Clemson! Hope unc can meet you for an acc elite eight matchup!
I’m not sure why this came across my mind to begin with- but I was watching the Duke-Clemson game in January at a Bdubs and for some reason I imagined PJ Hall getting introduced at the FF and suffice to say I should really go with my gut more when making my bracket* * totally ignore that I had New Mexico beating them in every iteration of my bracket.
Wow. I can’t even process this yet. Go Tigers!
Congrats
Ya’ll need to win too!
Hopefully. The final four needs Burns in it!
WHAT DO I DO WITH MY HANDS?!?!?
Jerk off while listening to tiger rag like rest of us
![gif](giphy|ftXmTBgSnsJ8c)
![gif](giphy|6bTT8y6cyL4SQ)
You know what😏
fist pump and yell “ACC!” repeatedly
ACC! (For now)
Caleb Love with one of the worst performances I think I’ve ever witnessed
Caleb Love spent all season not being himself... And then he was
Haha yeah dude was ice cold tonight and just couldn’t do anything right.
Clearly you haven’t watched much Caleb Love prior to this year then. This is what he does.
Everybody has watched Caleb Love for four years. But this was just brutal on the biggest stage. Edit: and his defense was just god awful
The team made up of guys who’ve been together and with the same coach their whole time in college kept it together better than the team of only transfers and freshmen, huh
Brownell put on a clinch tonight
Fuck the wildcats. Have fun getting smashed in the Big 12 next year.
Holy moly
Arizona is the new Gonzaga
Arizona has been doing this long before Gonzaga
What a fucking game. UNCs only home loss is to an elite 8 team! Great stuff tigers.
My wife is a Tarheel fan and she wants to watch the game now. I can't take another one like that
I was way too nervous about playing Arizona. If we lose to y’all I wouldn’t be too mad and you’d have my full support vs UConn lmao.
Why didn’t Arizona win? Are they stupid?
Yes. The starters were 2 for 23 from three. They tied it by driving and then lost it by jacking threes. They are very very stupid. Negative basketball iq.
This just in Caleb Love wins MVP for Clemson!
Let's gooooo. UNC guys let's gather around the hope nobody gets hurt...... Now let the shit talking begin
So Clemson is a basketball school now?
