CLEMSON - Clemson enters the ACC Tournament this week in need of a miracle run if it is to play deep into March. The Tigers will be the No. 11 seed and open ACC Tournament play against No. 6 seeded Florida State at 9 p.m. Thursday in Greensboro, N.C.

Clemson (13-17, 5-13 ACC) finished its regular season with a loss at ACC regular season champion Miami on Saturday.

Clemson has lost sixth straight and eight of nine games. The Tigers have not had a losing season since 2003-04, Oliver Purnell’s first season.

Clemson has lost in both of its meetings against Florida State (17-14, 9-9) this season. Florida State won the ACC Tournament last season.
