CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — Nick Davidson scored 21 straight points in the first half and finished with a season-high 25 as No. 22 Clemson beat Boston College 74-50 on Tuesday night to remain undefeated in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
The Tigers (15-3, 5-0 ACC) won their eighth straight game, one day after reaching the Top 25 rankings for the first time this season.
Davidson, the Nevada transfer, accounted for all of Clemson's scoring in a 21-9 run in the first to turn a four-point deficit into a 32-24 lead.
Clemson started the second half on a 9-2 run. The Tigers were led by RJ Godfrey's five points and extended their lead to double digits.
Davidson's two foul shots with 9:50 to play extended Clemson's lead to 21 points and Boston College (7-10, 0-4) failed to respond. The Tigers eventually led by 25 in the second half.
Davidson made 8 of 11 shots from the field, including four of Clemson's eight 3-pointers. He finished a point shy of his career high, set against Sam Houston State in November 2024.
Fred Payne led Boston College with 20 points.
Godfrey and Carter Welling each had 10 points and eight rebounds for Clemson.
Boston College opened quickly, hitting five of its first eight shots for a 15-11 lead. That's when Davidson went on his run in a 10-minute stretch in which he accounted for all of Clemson's offense.
Jestin Porter, who scored 26 points in Clemson's last outing in a win at Notre Dame, added a pair of 3-pointers down the stretch as the Tigers led 37-27 at the break.
