Incredible. Love the matchup tomorrow. I think it gives Hunter a chance to really dictate the game.
Go tigers!

I believe Oregon St. in 2021 won their first three NCAAT games as an underdog #12 seed.

No worries. I looked it up to confirm, but Oregon St. did win their first three games an underdog to Tennessee (+8.5), Oklahoma St (+5.5), and Loyola Chicago (+6.5) before losing to Houston in the Elite Eight. Regardless though, it’s an impressive feat for Clemson that gets more impressive when you add in the fact that we’ve only trailed for a combined approximate of 50 seconds total over the three games.

I agree that its happened before, but the stat wasnt about the seeding

it was about being an underdog (from a betting perspective). Remember clemson was the higher seed in the first game but was still an underdog.
And I’m sure in past years there were other double digit seeds who have been favored over lower seeds.

I think it's even cooler that we held the lead in all three games for over 99% of game time!
