Clemson beat a clearly over matched Pitt team to win the ACC championship game for the fourth consecutive year. While neither team was able to pass particularly well on a rainy Charlotte night the Tigers ability to run the ball made the difference. Pitt’s corners held up well on the outside, which isn’t the most surprising thing to anyone familiar with Narduzzi’s old MSU defenses. When they were really shutting teams down Narduzzi was able to take two and three star corners and get them playing like four and five stars. Having corners who can, for the most part, handle the outside receivers on their own frees up the safeties and linebackers to aggressively play the run.
