RELATED: SCOUTING THE CLEMSON TIGERS

Series History: Clemson leads the all-time series 6-4. The Tigers have also won the last two, both at Littlejohn Coliseum. Prior to those two consecutive wins, the Orange had won three in a row. The three game winning streak started in 2017 when freshman Tyus Battle hit a corner three at the buzzer to shock the Tigers. Syracuse was 0-2 against Clemson as non-conference opponents, beat the Tigers in their first matchup as ACC foes before Clemson won two in a row prior to the Orange's three game winning streak. 

What to Know About Clemson: Clemson is 11th in the ACC in rebounding margin (Syracuse is 10th), 10th in defensive rebounding percentage (Syracuse is 15th), and 11th in offensive rebounding percentage (Syracuse is 8th). Clemson is one of the better teams in the ACC in forcing turnovers at over 15 per game. That is one of the ways they make up for the lack of rebounding. Clemson uses a lot of screens at the top of the key to free up their guards to drive and dish. However, that is usually against man defenses. Against the zone, Clemson could use Aamir Simms in the middle as he leads the team in assists at 2.8 per game. Simms sees the floor well, is a willing passer and can hit the mid-range jumper. Clemson is not a big, physical team on the interior overall. They do have one player who fits the bill of the types that have given Syracuse a lot of trouble this season. That would be Clemson forward Aamir Simms. Simms is 6-8, 245 pounds, averages 12 points and six rebounds per game, both of which lead the team.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
