MIAMI GARDENS, FL – Eric Mac Lain knew Miami would try and use a little trash talking to get the Tigers out of their game. Clemson did its talking on the field.
Number six Clemson throttled Miami 58-0 Saturday afternoon in Sun Life Stadium, a statement game for a team that keeps looking for national respect. The Hurricanes started the trash talking long before the game started, continued to talk (and draw unsportsmanlike penalties) during the game, and Mac Lain said the Miami fans kept up a running dialogue with Clemson players throughout the contest.
The Tigers got the last word.
