TALLAHASSEE – Clemson quarterback DJ Uiagalelei knows that Syracuse will bring it’s A-game next week, and he will start preparation for the Orange Sunday.
No. 4 Clemson held on to defeat Florida State 34-28 Saturday in Doak Campbell Stadium to improve to 7-0 overall and 5-0 in the ACC. The Tigers have won four conference road games, while Syracuse has played just three conference games overall (all at home).
Syracuse is 6-0 and bowl-eligible after a 24-9, grueling victory against No. 15 North Carolina State. It’s the Orange’s first home win in a battle of Top-20 teams since a victory against Florida in 1991.
