I caught the score just before the half. It was surprising to be that far ahead, but also thought, “we can totally blow this lead.”
Later, I caught the score with a few minutes left. We had totally blown the lead. Fortunately the lead was quickly recovered and retained. The final score was 79-69.
The next day I checked the ACC standings. We’re 3rd. That just doesn’t seem right.

Totally doesn’t make sense. We should be number 2!!!
I’m confused … why should Clemson be number 2? Or is this an “if only” kind of thinking?
Yeah, it is a coulda-shoulda-woulda line of thought. Those OT losses still hurt.
