The Clemson Tigers are set to host the Virginia Cavaliers in a crucial ACC showdown on March 1, 2025. This matchup marks a critical point in the season for both teams as they strive for NCAA Tournament seeding. The Tigers are hoping to bounce back following a disappointing game against Notre Dame, where they suffered a narrow defeat and fell to a 19-9 record. ‘We need to learn from our mistakes and focus on what we can control,’ Clemson head coach Brad Brownell stated. Meanwhile, the Cavaliers, currently boasting a 20-8 record, are looking to solidify their momentum after recent wins. Virginia head coach Tony Bennett emphasized the significance of this game, stating, ‘Every game from here on out is important, and playing against a fierce competitor like Clemson is an opportunity we can’t take lightly.’ However, the Tigers are dealing with injury concerns as their star player, Chase Hunter, is listed as questionable due to a sprained ankle sustained in the last game. This will be a game to watch, especially with NCAA Tournament implications hanging in the balance. Key players to watch for Clemson include PJ Hall and Hunter Tyson, while Virginia relies heavily on their star guard Kihei Clark. The game is set to tip-off at 2:00 PM ET at Littlejohn Coliseum, and fans can catch the action on ESPN.
