Want To Guess The Outcome After NC State Scored 2 Points The Last 4 Minutes?
That was an absolutely hilarious basketball game. NC State looked like it wanted absolutely nothing to do with even playing the game the first half. Down 18 early. Fought back to cut it to 10 and then give up another run.
Then Clemson did what Clemson always seems to do. Blow a game late which makes no sense. NC STATE SCORED 2 POINTS THE LAST 4 MINUTES OF THE GAME. The only 2 points? Free throws at the end of the game to go up 1.
Have I mentioned this was essentially a win or get eliminated game too? At least that’s the feel talking to people when it comes to the NCAA Tournament. Both teams were on the bubble. A win would likely keep a team in. A loss would mean sweat out Selection Sunday. This is also the 2nd game this season Clemson lost to NC State in a complete collapse. So now Clemson is in that position. They don’t have a bad loss, but they also didn’t win. They have 1 quadrant 1 win.
As for NC State? Well, they advance. That’s all that matters. It was ugly. Markell Johnson willed them to the victory while making a bunch of terrible decisions.
