Tigers need to run football better in Orange Bowl

Clemson left guard Eric Mac Lain is excited the top-ranked Tigers are playing No. 4 Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl.

However, despite beating the Sooners 40-6 last year’s Russell Athletic Bowl, Clemson still had some issues on offense, especially in the running game. The Tigers gained just 68 rushing yards on Oklahoma’s defense and Mac Lain says for the Tigers to win the game in three weeks, they will have to run the football better than they did in last year’s game.
