After 'bump in the road,' Elliott not going to put any more pressure on offense

CLEMSON – Offensive coordinator Tony Elliott smiled Monday morning when he was asked if the Tigers feel like they have to keep up with Wake Forest’s prolific offense Saturday, and he said that he won’t put any more pressure on his players than they already feel.

Wake Forest and Clemson kick off at noon Saturday on ESPN in a game that has ACC Atlantic Division title implications, and the Demon Deacons bring the nation’s second-best scoring offense (44.7 points per game) into the contest.

Clemson’s defense will, of course, have a say in how many points the Demon Deacons score, but Elliott knows this will have to be his offense’s best game.
