App State 202 (277)
Boston College 160 (164)
FSU 197 (165). Dalvin Cook got 192 in this game.
Syracuse 242 (156)
South Carolina 181 (152)
What's interesting about the FSU game, is Cook had something like 125 yards on his first two carries. It was extremely deflating in the stadium, but the defense rallied and did what they needed to do through the remainder of the game.
Clemson's defense has been suspect to giving up big plays, a trademark of Venables' aggressive style. They blitz a lot and leave players in 1-on-1 situations, so if you have a mismatch or someone slips, you can get a big play against the Tigers.
I'm interested to see the linebackers and how they cover Bama's tight ends and backs in the flat with what I expect to be a huge effort to stop the run first.
