Clemson-Virginia Tech

LA Times

The Tigers, who are on a six-game winning streak, statistically are the most complete team in the nation, ranking fourth in total defense (230.38 yards per game) and sixth in total offense (456.25 yards). No other team is among the top 10 in both. Leading rusher James Davis, seventh in the nation with 961 yards and second with 16 touchdowns, injured his shoulder in a victory over Georgia Tech last week and his availability will be a game-time decision. In his place, C.J. Spiller had 116 yards in 16 carries last week. The Hokies reached No. 11 in the nation before consecutive losses to Georgia Tech and Boston College. They match up well against Clemson, with a run defense that gives up an average of only 98.6 yards a game. On offense, they average a respectable 29.14 points a game but have struggled to run the ball, averaging only 119 yards a game on the ground. They combined for 75 yards in their two losses.
