No defense in the country has been as dominate as Clemson’s.
The Tigers rank second in the country with 45 sacks. They are second in the country in tackles for loss with 122. They lead the country allowing just 2.4 yards per rush and they are tied for second in the most important statistic of them all, scoring defense (13.7 points/game).
Of course, a lot of Clemson’s success comes from its defensive line where it has three potential first-round picks and another guy who is sure to be taken by the third round. In other words, Clemson’s defensive line is not just good, but it is great.
