Iron sharpens iron - Clemson’s wide receivers, defensive backs bring out the best in each other

In 2014, Clemson wide receiver Artavis Scott recorded a team-high 76 receptions for 965 yards. His counterpart, Mike Williams, grabbed 57 passes for a team-high 1,030 yards. Together, they totaled 14 touchdowns and were one of the best duos in the ACC.

On the other side of the ball, the Tigers led the nation in pass efficiency defense for the first time in the program’s history. Clemson allowed opponents to complete exactly 50 percent of their passes for just 5.27 yards per attempt, 10.5 yards per completion and 157.4 yards per game. The opponent efficiency rating was 98.
