Confident Clemson defense takes aim at dynamic Virginia QB

CLEMSON – Senior safety K’Von Wallace told the media Monday that Clemson is the best team in the country and defensive coordinator Brent Venables likes the confidence shown by the Virginia native. For the Tigers to prove they are indeed the nation’s best team, they have to get past the Virginia Cavaliers in this weekend’s ACC Championship Game in Charlotte.

That means stopping dynamic quarterback Bryce Perkins.

Over the course of this season, Perkins has completed 64.3 percent of his passes for 2,949 yards and 16 touchdowns with nine interceptions. He has also rushed 196 times for 687 yards and 11 touchdowns.
