ATLANTA — Clemson players K.J. McDaniels and DaMarcus Harrison said that the Tigers made a slight change in the second half Saturday at Georgia Tech, yet the result was huge as they turned a nine-point deficit into a 63-55 win. Simply put, Clemson (17-9, 8-6 ACC) played with more defensive energy after halftime, and it helped that McDaniel scored 10 of his 16 points and Harrison added 10 of his 15. The Tigers pressured Georgia Tech ballhandlers more aggressively and took advantage of the sloppy Yellow Jackets as Tech (13-14, 4-10) committed nine of its 15 turnovers and Clemson scored 14 points off those mistakes.
