Virginia hasn’t lost to Clemson since 2013 and hasn’t lost to the Tigers at home since 2008. Clemson scored in the 40s for the third time this season and for the second straight game, coming off a 56-44 loss at Wake Forest on Saturday. After Clemson missed a couple of 3-point shots that would have taken the lead, Key knocked down a triple with 4:50 left to put Virginia up 39-34. After Clemson’s Clyde Trapp missed a potential tying 3-pointer with 1:53 to play, Key answered with another clutch 3-pointer to push the Cavaliers’ lead to 45-39. Virginia held a 14-2 lead after seven minutes, and Clemson didn’t reach double figures until Dawes made a layup with 4:32 left in the half.
