Clemson is coming off a double overtime win over Maryland, its first over the Terrapins since the 2009-10 season.
With the win over Maryland, Clemson reached nine ACC wins for only the ninth time in 61 seasons as a conference member.
Clemson looks to break Miami’s three-game winning streak in the series; last season, the eventual ACC Champion Hurricanes escaped Littlejohn Coliseum with a 45-43 victory.

QUICK HITS

Clemson’s last win over Miami came in 2010-11; his Tigers swept the Hurricanes that season, winning 79-72 at home and 63-59 in Coral Gables.
The Tigers are playing their second game in a two-day span, the third time this ACC regular season Clemson has played on one day’s preparation.
The two head coaches, Brownell and Miami’s Jim Larrañaga, are old rivals from their days in the Colonial Athletic Association. Brownell coached UNC Wilmington to a pair of CAA titles, while Larrañaga is well known for taking his 2006 George Mason team to the Final Four.
Clemson is in search of its 10th ACC win Tuesday, a feat that has been accomplished only three times in 61 seasons by the Tiger program.
K.J. McDaniels posted his fifth “20 & 10” game of the season against Maryland, most by an ACC player this season and most by a Tiger since Sharrod Ford also had five as a senior in 2004-05.
McDaniels needs 21 to become the 14th player in Clemson history to score at least 500 in a single season. K.C. Rivers (2007-08) was the last to do it.
