couple of weeks ago in louisvil louisville,y clemson came in, there were some questions, how would they handle the road environment. a comfortable win. the backups gave up some scores and the starters were very frustrated about some breakdowns late in the game, even though it's comfortably in hand. >> kirk: they take a lot of pride in their scoring defense. and also, they want to see those younger guys do well. should mention, by the way, remember, we thought when ryan carter went down on that tackle attempt, looked like maybe he had a shoulder that was bothering him it just noticed, he was part of the coverage team there, trying to keep savoy out. he, in fact, was lined up against him. so, great to see ryan carter, who we thought might be done for the night, was back out there. >> chris: slye, the ball falling off the tee as they line up for an apparent onside kick. kirk herbstreit, the total yards category is now in favor of virginia tech, 34
