Twitter reacts to Clemson's 11 sack performance |
Clemson's defense took Auburn out to the woodshed with their 11 sack performance in the 14-6 win on Saturday night. It was the second most sacks in school history behind only Furman in 1996 and 11 against Utah State in 2004.
Austin Bryant had four sacks on the evening which tied the Clemson single game record and teammate Christian Wilkins also had a stellar game with two sacks against the War Eagles. Here are some of the tweet reactions about Clemson's impressive performance around the Internet. Clemson held Auburn to 68 yards on 66 plays. Saturday's stars: 11 sacks tonight by that Clemson defense. Now I understand Kent St only throwing like 5 times. Well played Kent St. Well played.... 117 yards is a stock sand wedge. Clemson defense was strong Better team won in Clemson. From AU's standpoint, defense is outstanding and won't face a better opponent this season, Iron Bowl included. Clemson has 11 sacks?! Dabo told me he thought this year's defense could be better than last year. .@ClemsonFB records 11 sacks & 14 TFL overall v. Auburn, one short of school record 12 v. Furman in 1996. (-72 yards on sacks) Auburn- defense played good enough to win, offense was terrible, 11 sacks and skeptical play calling falls right at the feet of Gus Clemson's defensive stats from last night are absolutely insane: 117 total yards allowed, 11 sacks, 14 TFL's, 0.9 yards per rush. MY. GOD. Gus Malzahn went to the grocery store. What'd he come home with? Stock Up Week 2 Clemsons d line lived up to the hype last night. Good lord 11 sacks is insane Clemsons defense is just a relentless force, That front 4 is ridiculous we knew that though. Linebackers are dogs out there & secondary is ?? BREAKING: Jarrett Stidham was unable to make the trip home back to Auburn. When he attempted to board the plane, Clemson sacked him again. Defense wins CHAMPIONSHIP!! I think that @ClemsonFB nasty D visiting Louisville and @Lj_era8 would make for a compelling contest. Again. Am I right @KirkHerbstreit ? Boy I can't wait to play on this defense in front of these fans ??
