The 411: Clemson D Steps Up In Biggest Moments Against BC

Clemson went into Boston College and took care of business with a 41-10 blowout win over Boston College on Saturday night.

The Tigers had more than 200 passing and more than 200 rushing yards in the victory and moved to 66-2 all-time under Swinney when doing so.

Defense Stepped Up When Needed

Sure, this defense gave up far too many chunk plays, particularly in the first half, but when the Tigers needed it the most, Tom Allen’s unit stepped up. And it happened twice in the first half.

The first time, it was Sammy Brown sacking BC quarterback Dylan Lonergan and forcing a fumble.
