The Upside - Clemson

[SWC75]

- Down 19-39 at the half, my only hope was to see if we could win the second half. We did, 42-39. It was something to root for.

- We forced 20 takeovers and only gave up 8 turnovers, a +12 that helped negate the -17 rebounding gap. Too bad we only scored 12 points off those 20 turnovers.

- Joe Girard had a dreadful start, unable to get shots off but able to lose the ball twice in the opening minutes. He had a nice second half comeback and scored 19 points on 7 for 13 shooting. And he was 5 for 7 inside the arc, which has been his real problem.

- Kadary Richmond only scored 3 points but he had 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 6 steals.

- With Bourama and Woody back, sort of, maybe we can get a peak at what this team should have been before the end of the season.

10-6 (4-5) with ? to go

LET’S GO ORANGE!!!

With all due respect SWC75, the only upside to today's game was that it ended.

Bourama & Woody will need several games to get back to anywhere near useful. Clemson had a shutdown due to COVID. When their team got back playing they lost several games in a row before they got back on track. This is one very strange and messy season.

just as it was for football.

closing up 3 points in the second half to a team leading by 20 means nothing. they've taken the foot off the pedal and are playing out simply not to lose. the fact we couldn't close to within 10 is disturbing.

Mrs. Lincoln other than the assassination did you enjoy the play?

One has to set goals of some kind.

I had to work harder on it.
