CLEMSON - If Chase Hunter could find one word to describe this team, his would be “gritty.”

The word may be a little on the nose, but he certainly has reason to believe that description is justified.

After such an emotional high against Kentucky, a trip to Coral Gables on a Saturday afternoon facing a sluggish Miami team had “trap game” written all over it.

It seemed Clemson was walking closely into falling into a letdown, but Hunter led his group to find their sixth straight win on the season.

The Tigers now sit at 9-1 (1-0 ACC), looking to wrap up non-conference play on a positive note.
