Not to minimize the UNC streak, but let's be honest, Clemson barely knew what a basketball was until SU* joined the ACC, ESPN started paying the ACC, at least better than the second tier, and everyone agreed to step up the sports programs en toto.
While I am very happy for Clemson, I am more happy UNC lost the game because they deserve many, many losses for the insult to colleges everywhere that many students received college credit towards degrees for classes that never physically existed, they did not attend, there was no syllabus, no classes, no papers, no exams, and everyone passed with flying colors.
* Time reference, not claiming SU made Clemson better in hoops.
