Cincinnati Bearcats vs Clemson | Men’s Basketball
December 19 | 7:00 PM – 7:30 PM
at Heritage Bank Center
Game time TBA
The University of Cincinnati will host Clemson in the inaugural Cincinnati Clash on Saturday, December 19, at Heritage Bank Center, bringing together two nationally recognized programs for one of the marquee non-conference matchups of the college basketball season.
The contest renews a series that began at the 2025 Greenville Winter Invitational, where Clemson escaped with a 68-65 victory after Cincinnati mounted a dramatic second-half comeback, setting the stage for a highly anticipated rematch.
The Cincinnati Clash arrives at a pivotal moment for Bearcats basketball as Cincinnati enters a new era under Head Coach Jerrod Calhoun. With renewed excitement surrounding the program and one of the nation’s most passionate fan bases, the Bearcats will welcome perennial ACC contender Clemson for a nationally televised December showdown.
