For in-conference play, Clemson will finish the regular season with the highest free throw percentage. After years of being maligned for poor FT shooting, this is quite a turnaround. Congrats Tigers!
Here are the standings after yesterday, and the teams playing today have not caught up.

of games over the past gazillion years, and it probably cost us a few last year, with virtually the same group of players. Further evidence that coach Brownell's overall philosophy is working.

for as long as I can remember, the Tigers could not sink a free throw and have lost many games because of it.

New format is they rank tourney 1-68. The last 4 at large

teams and the last 4 total teams play the play in games. Last last 4 at large play each other and the 2 winners play the highest available team, likely a 4 or 5 seed. The last 4 total play each other and the 2 winners play 1 seeds.

300 free throws that we beat only VT and FSU (1 of 2).Five of our seven conference losses came against teams who get fouled the most. I know some of it comes at the end of games when teams are losing to them - but not all the time in close games , and we had our share of those .

No wonder it is so chilly today.....who would have ever thought this was possible when the season began. Same team players for the last three years....amazing.
Coach B and his staff have done an amazing turnaround with this team!! The team playing as they have all season has been a joy to watch.
What a ride it has been and can't wait for Friday!!! Go Tigers!
