Clemson linebacker says team lost focus at UNC: "You can't cheat the game"

CLEMSON – Trying to cheat the game will get you beat.

Clemson linebacker James Skalski met with the media Monday morning to look back at Clemson’s 21-20 victory over North Carolina nine days ago and look ahead to this week’s game against Florida State Skalski said the Tigers, who had to hold off a late Tar Heel charge to win the game, learned a lot from the experience of winning a close game on the road.

“I think it was good for this team. We obviously came off of a nail-biter but it was an opportunity for us to reflect and grow and really self-critique offensively and defensively and just heal up for this stretch we have coming” Skalski said.
