'Bruise Brothers' ready for last rivalry ride in 'hostile' Columbia

Saturday marks the last time James Skalski and Baylon Spector line up in the same defense together against the rival South Carolina Gamecocks, with No. 47 and No. 10 respectively delivering hit after hit as the “Bruise Brothers” -- head coach Dabo Swinney's nickname for the duo.

Together the duo has combined for 443 tackles and 19 sacks in their Clemson career and also helped the Tigers to six straight ACC Championships and College Football Playoff appearances. It’s been an impressive ride for the linebackers, and before the next wave of talented recruits takes over the position, the duo has one last ride on Saturday night inside of Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia.
