RALEIGH, NC – Clemson players and coaches took time to dance in the locker room following the Tigers’ 55-10 victory over NC State Saturday, celebrating the program’s fifth consecutive ACC Atlantic Division Championship. The celebrations didn’t last long, however. There is still work to be done.
The Tigers left little doubt in Saturday’s victory, jumping out to a 28-0 lead in the first quarter.
“I'm proud of the guys. We just keep harping every week the importance of preparation and getting off to a fast start,” co-offensive coordinator Tony Elliott said. “The guys over the last several weeks have really taken that to heart and have come out firing on all cylinders so it was really good to have those first four possessions where we were able to score touchdowns but still have some opportunities in the second half.
