After Clemson gave up 417 total yards to Virginia, linebacker James Skalski knows the Tigers have to play better on defense with No. 7 Miami coming to town on Saturday.
The Hurricanes (3-0, 2-0 ACC) lead the ACC in total (499.0 yds) and scoring (43.3 pts.) offense per game. Skalski spoke to the media on Monday to preview Saturday’s 7:30 p.m., kickoff, which will be televised on ABC.
