The Mad Scientist: Venables says his defense looked for redemption against Pack

CLEMSON – Brent Venables had a good feeling his defense would dominate Wake Forest two weeks ago when the Tigers got off the bus. A fantastic week of practice and an air of confidence surrounded his group, and he knew the Demon Deacons would pay the price.

Fast forward to Saturday, and Venables wasn’t as confident against the Wolfpack. Practice during the week was good but not great, and he wasn’t sure he had the full attention of his group.

After the game, Venables sat down in a padded chair, play sheets gripped tightly in his left hand, and smiled as he faced the media.
