Despite all the drama that has occurred on and off the field when Clemson plays NC State, Tigers’ co-offensive coordinator Jeff Scott says the Wolfpack’s physicality is what he thinks about when they get ready to play each year.
“To be honest, what stands out is they are a tough out,” Scott said Monday from the Poe Indoor Practice Facility in Clemson. “They have played us very physical. Their defense has been very physical each time that we have played them.”
Over the years, NC State—who the Tigers play Saturday from Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, North Carolina—have had one of the more physical offensive and defensive lines in the ACC.
