ACC basketball capsules: Clemson vs. Virginia

Published Feb. 14, 2012 7:43 a.m. ET

Tuesday, Feb. 14

Virginia (19-5, 6-4) at Clemson (12-12, 4-6)

When:  7 p.m.

Where: Clemson, S.C., Littlejohn Coliseum (11,000)

Fast break: The banged up Cavaliers need to bring what’s left of their A game every time they take the floor from here on out, especially on the road. Joe Harris broke a bone in his left hand and won’t be as effective, so UVa must make up his production somewhere. Enter freshman Malcolm Brogdon, who might be the team’s best athlete. Clemson needs to battle, defend and crash the boards to have a chance. BTW, Clemson’s Milton Jennings has scored 29 points and grabbed 11 rebound in his two games since returning from a second suspension this season.  

Forecast: Virginia, 64-58.

Andrew Jones’ record: 174-44
