CLEMSON — In four years at Clemson, Wader Woodaz has never been as despondent as he was after the Tigers’ 46-45 loss to Duke on Saturday.
The offense did its part, racking up 560 yards of offense, with Cade Klubnik throwing for a career-high 385 yards. However, just like in the loss to SMU, it was the Clemson defense that faltered against the Blue Devils, as Darian Mensah sliced up the Tigers’ secondary.
Mensah had seven passing plays that went for 15 yards or more, including 77 and 43-yard touchdown strikes, plus another 56-yard completion that helped set up the game-tying touchdown with under a minute remaining.
