Clemson’s defensive players returned home following Thursday’s win over Georgia Tech, and many immediately began watching film of Louisville, hoping to get a head start on the clash with Action Jackson.
Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson has been the talk of college football during the season’s first four weeks, and with good reason. The sophomore signal-caller accounted for seven touchdowns in leading the Cardinals to a 59-28 win over Marshall to improve to 4-0. He passed for 417 yards (with five touchdowns) and another 62 yards on the ground (with two more touchdowns).
Jackson has 1,301 passing yards (13 touchdown passes) and 510 rushing yards (12 touchdowns) this season, and he's played in only 11 quarters.
