Defensive end Xavier Thomas feels like Clemson’s defense is being a little disrespected as they get set for next Monday’s College Football Playoff National Championship against LSU.
Ever since the Tigers knocked off Ohio State to advance to the title game on Dec. 28, the talk amongst most of the national media is how unstoppable LSU’s offense is and some wonder if Clemson, who leads the nation in scoring defense and passing defense, can slow the Bayou Bengals down.
“We feel disrespected a little bit,” Thomas said Monday as Clemson hosted its own media day at the Poe Indoor Practice Facility in Clemson.
