The Colorado State star made sure everyone knew he knew how badly underrated his team was on Saturday when it won the Mountain West Conference tournament after it was rated seventh in the league's preseason poll.
Clifford and the 12th-seeded Rams have a chance to prove more skeptics wrong on Friday in Seattle when they take on fifth-seeded Memphis in a first-round West Region game of the NCAA Tournament.
"They picked us seventh. That's something we took part in and we wanted to prove everyone wrong," Clifford said. "It feels super sweet to be able to do so."
Colorado State (25-9) was 5-5 in mid-December and it's now the owner of a 10-game winning streak, all by at least eight points. The Rams are 15-2 over the past 17 games and have found their sweet spot.
BOL Ladies & Gentlemen . . . . Let the Madness begin!
More to come throughout the day still pondering

North Carolina Tar Heels @Ole MississippiRebels+1.5 -105bet365* 4:05 pm
The 11th-seeded Tar Heels (23-13), whose spot in the tournament was roundly questioned, advanced with a 95-68 rout of San Diego State in a First Four matchup Tuesday behind 26 points from RJ Davis. It was North Carolina's ninth win in its last 11 games.
"We're getting better," North Carolina coach Hubert Davis said afterward. "And over the last month and half, two months, we've just gotten better and better. And it's coming at the right time."
Ole Miss (22-11) lost to Auburn 62-57 in the quarterfinals of the Southeastern Conference tournament. Their No. 6 seed is the highest since the Rebels were a No. 3 in 2001, when they advanced to the Sweet 16. The Rebels are making their 10th appearance in the NCAA Tournament and first since a 95-72 first-round loss to Oklahoma in 2019.
Ole Miss has been inconsistent but has victories over Alabama and Tennessee -- both No. 2 seeds. The Rebels average 77.2 points per game, allowing 71.7. Ole Miss is 10-2 when scoring 80 points or more.
"An interesting thing about our resume; you know we didn't lose a game this year to a team that's not in the NCAA Tournament," Ole Miss coach Chris Beard said Monday.
Mississippi is the fourth program Beard has taken to the NCAA Tournament. He has never lost a first-round game.

UConn is 14-4 under Hurley in NCAA Tournament games. He called the assignment against Oklahoma "a fun matchup. It's a formidable first-round opponent from a great league."
Oklahoma will be in its first NCAA Tournament game since 2021. So, this is the first time that Moser, who previously directed Loyola to the Final Four, will accompany the Sooners to the tourney.
