Clemson 14 Wake Forest 0

- Tigers stall just past midfield. Lyn J Dixon misses on his blitz pickup and causes Lawrence to get sacked
- Spiers fumbles the snap on the punt, Wake ball at Tiger 28. Snap was fine, Spiers just dropped it
- Wake picks up one 1st down but on 3rd and 11 Tyler Davis bats the pass down. Wake kicks a short FG
