Road wins in the ACC can be nothing if not few and far between. So it is with no small amount of pleasure that I can say that Clemson beat a pretty good (20-8) Florida State team in Tallahassee.

[Trevor] Booker hit four straight free throws in the final 11 seconds and blocked a 3-point shot by the Seminoles’ Deividas Dulkys with 5 seconds left that could have tied it.

But it was the outside sniping of sophomore guard Andre Young from nearby Albany, Ga., that made the difference. His 3-point basket gave the Tigers a 49-47 lead with 30 seconds left.

Free throws? We won the game on free throws? It certainly looks like it. ESPN says Booker was 7-9 (78%) and the the team was 15-19 (79%). FSU was only 14-24 from the charity stripe.

Good win, Clemson!
