Clemson plays at North Carolina Tuesday night, and that means it’s time to bring one of college basketball’s more remarkable streaks out of the closet for another updating.

0-58.

That’s the Tigers’ all-time record in Chapel Hill. Over nine decades starting in 1926, on four different North Carolina home courts, through 14 Clemson coaches and 16 U.S. presidents.

0-58.

Congrats to @Coach_Brownell who moved into third all-time in victories at Clemson with his 139th today! 👏

College basketball is unpredictable and flighty, prone to zigs and zags and ups and downs. Nobody wins forever. Even John Wooden lost in the Final Four.

But… 0-58.

Are the basketball gods listening? Are they ready to smile upon Clemson – at long, long, long last?

The Tigers will arrive in the Smith Center Tuesday with a 15-2 record, and were ranked No. 19 last week in the Associated Press poll, with the Tar Heels in their rearview mirror at No. 20. Only twice in those 58 defeats was Clemson rated higher.

Clemson was No. 12 and North Carolina No. 13 in 1980. The Tar Heels won 73-70.

The Tigers were No. 2 to North Carolina’s No. 19 in 1997. The Tar Heels won 61-48. The streak rolled on.

Of the 58 North Carolina victories, 13 were decided by 30 points or more, 27 by 20-plus, only six in single digits or overtime. And obviously, the Tar Heels usually have beaten Clemson no matter what the venue. The overall series is 131-20. Dean Smith went 68-13 against the Tigers, Roy Williams is 19-2.
