Would be nice
But I am curious for level of confidence there is in the fans who feel Clemson will win?
Fans = reasonable Clemson basketball knowledgeable fans. Not the CBB haters or Clemson football is great so basketball is too fans or CBB can do no wrong, all is rosy fans
I am not that confident. Clemson has to have so many things go just right for a win. Meaning margin of error is slim.
Clemson must come out tough, inspired, active but settled, and most play inside out for first 10 minutes.
The guards better be able to find some space and play well vs aggressive defense.
PJ must play like he did vs UNC. Ian needs to have the standard game for Ian. Would love for him to go 3 of 4 from 3pt.
Chase must shoot well with limited 3s taken (max 4-5) for the game unless he is on fire. Hope he can drive and pull up inside 10 ft range and get 8+ FTs.
Hope JG3 can find some o
We need Wiggins to shoot well and Godfrey to get 8-12 points in paint. Josh B must play in control with limited turnovers and no dumb could.
Dillon Hunter needs to get 4-5 layups or short pull up drives

That's not true. The trend is exactly in order with the seeds:
9 seed .513 (winning record) 10 seed .391 11 seed .382 12 seed .349 13 seed .211 14 seed .145 15 seed .072 16 seed .013

How much bbq they eat for lunch.
Too little and they will fade down the stretch.
Too much and they come out sluggish and get behind from the start.
I hope our game day nutritionist is dialed in on the exact amount of Memphis bbq required for optimal performance.

Yep but only two things matter: turnovers and shooting percentage.

Pretty sure only one thing matters: score more points than the other team.
Can have 0 turnovers and shoot 100% and only score 20 points or in a half...imagine a game where the opponent shots 10% but gets every single offensive rebound, and burns 15-19 seconds off the clock for every miss.
Preventing turnovers and shooting a high percentage are obviously keys to scoring more points than the other team, but in the end it's the points that matter. You can't look at the stat sheet after the game and say "But we shot 72% and they only shot 38%" if they scored after most of their misses to put more points on the board.
