Postgame Analysis: Xavier Thomas provides a spark in win over BC

Chestnut Hill, MA – Clemson shined in the second half as the Tigers took down Boston College Saturday night to remain undefeated.

Fifth-ranked Clemson (6-0 overall, 4-0 ACC) defeated the Eagles (2-4, 1-3) 31-3 at Alumni Stadium.

The Tigers started slow and only led 10-3 at halftime, but a second-half offensive surge led by quarterback DJ Uiagalelei and another stellar defensive effort put the game away by the beginning of the fourth quarter.

OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE GAME: Uiagalelei had less than 100 yards passing in the first half and threw an interception that led to a Boston College field goal, but the junior quarterback rebounded in the second half.
