Defense takes sour taste out of Venables mouth

Brent Venables was not pleased with the yards allowed by his defense last Saturday in College Station, Texas.

Clemson allowed a whopping 501 yards, including 431 yards through the air, as it narrowly escaped Texas A&M. The Tigers left Texas with a sour taste in their mouth and they were ready to move on and face their next opponent.

Saturday’s game at Death Valley was a different story as No. 2 Clemson stifled Georgia Southern holding it to 140 yards total yards with just 80 of those coming on the ground on the way to a 38-7 victory.
