We’ve had a really good year. One of the best in program history, actually.

The NCAA Tournament started in 1939. From 1939 until 1975, the tournament was restricted to conference champions only. Of course, we never made it during that span.

Since 1975, we have been to just 14 NCAA Tournaments. Our highest seed ever is a 4 seed (1987, 1997). We have been a 5 seed three times (1990, 2008, 2018). We are a 6 seed this year. So based on seeding, which takes into account our entire body of work, this is one of the best teams in program history.

I know many of you devote the majority of your posts these days to complaining about bad losses and inconsistent play, or predicting our demise. But if you are able to take a step back and zoom out a bit, you’ll see that we have had a very good year. It’s a very good year by most programs’ standards, and certainly by ours based on our history.

Now let’s go win some games in the Big Dance. Go Tigers!


Edited to fix seeding typos.

Where do you get 23? There are four 6 seeds so doesnt that add up to 24?

What about the #6 seed in 2009?

The 6 seeds are teams 21-24. CBS put the actual #s

I like that we are above the coots and I hope that ruffles their feathers. Of course we did beat the coots.

JK. I hope Clemson makes an historic run.
If this team plays to their potential they can make it to the final 4. Let's everyone forget about the past and pull for this team.
