Tigers come out of NC State game in great shape

Besides beating NC State 41-7 on Saturday, the best news to come out of the ACC Atlantic Division win was the fact No. 2 Clemson came out of it healthy.

The Tigers (7-0, 4-0 ACC) had no serious injuries or anyone banged up after the game.

One reason, perhaps, is the number of players who are getting playing time. According to Clemson Athletic Communications’ No. 2 contact, Brian Hennessy, 85 Tigers played in the win over the Wolfpack … 39 of offense, 36 on defense and 10 on special teams.

Fifty-four players played in the first quarter alone.
