So Close, So Far Away

What is it with ACC officials when Clemson plays UNC or Duke? I saw several walks and blatant fouls in Clemson's oh-so-close-again double overtime loss to UNC in Chapel Hill. They have never won at Chapel Hill, never, never, never. This has been going on since 1926. We had our chances last night, again with the ball with the clock winding down, again the shot failed to sink, again another loss in Chapel Hill. Had the officials not given the Tar Heels free rent on the foul line last night, we might have won this game. I know we will be back and will have another chance, but this was as close as we have been in a long time. It's a damn good UNC team but so is Clemson. It was a lame ACC officiating team. Period.

Enjoy Derek Trucks Band "So Close, So Far Away" from 2005 with the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra. Just like last night, beautiful and heart-breaking too.

I noticed someone changed their vote on your "Who will win the ACC poll". Was that you?
