Smith, Tigers continue to be active in the secondary

It was a big weekend for second-ranked Clemson and linebacker Chad Smith as they put a beatdown on Florida State at Death Valley this past Saturday.

With a lot of the defense getting an opportunity to show what they’re capable of, one such person who reaped the benefits was fifth-year linebacker Chad Smith. With 23 different players recording tackles, Smith was also one of three different players to record an interception in the game. It was the first interception of his career.

“It was pretty special. Classic example of being in the right place at the right time,” he said.
