The Storylines

Clemson is riding a high after last week’s 30-20 win over NC State in Death Valley on Saturday night. The last two meetings between these two teams have been decided by one possession.

In 2020, the altered schedule amid the COVID-19 pandemic turned a planned Boston College home game into a Clemson home game in what turned out to be current Clemson quarterback DJ Uiagalelei's first career start.

Clemson's most recent visit to Boston was in 2018 when true freshman Trevor Lawrence led the Tigers to a 27-7 win that clinched a division title for Clemson in front of a prime-time national audience on ABC. 

Spend this evening’s game with the CST Staff in this thread!

Tonight is the Red Bandanna Game, which honors the life and legacy of Welles Crowther. BC will be wearing all white tonight. Clemson is in the orange tops with white pants.

BC has won the toss and will defer until the second half. Clemson will get the ball to get things started.

DJ made a beautiful throw to Beaux Collins on the left corner but the ball is dropped.

B.T. Potter connects on a 35-yard FG though on a solid opening drive for Clemson. Tigers lead 3-0 with 11:28 to play in the opening quarter.

Gotta finish the sack there of Phil Jurkovec. BC gets a first down with Zay Flowers and is on the move.

Jaden Williams drops what would've been a first down for BC. The Eagles get a nice punt that will back Clemson up near their own end zone for their second series of the ball game.

7:27 to play in the first. Clemson leads 3-0.

Josh DeBerry picks off DJU. That was not a good decision as he threw it right to him.

The 35-yard field goal from BC is no good and the Tigers dodge a bullet after the interception.

Vinny DePalma sacks DJU. No one got separation from the man coverage for Clemson and the offense is forced to punt.

Clemson leads 3-0 with 2:40 to play in the first

Tigers getting pushed around on this series. A screen pass to the back and a nice run to make it 2nd and short highlight this drive so far.

Excellent PBU from Nate Wiggins on 3rd down and it looks like BC is going to go for it on 4th and 2. They're going to call a timeout to talk about.

Tied at 3. 9:29 to play before the half.

The pass is batted down by Jeremiah Trotter -- KJ Henry brought the pressure there. Eagles turn it over on downs. Tigers with the ball now.

The deep ball to Joseph Ngata is incomplete. Nice coverage there by Josh DeBarry to knock the ball away. Tigers with 21 yards rushing so far as the Eagles are loading the box to take away Shipley right now.

DJ is unable to get his feet set on the third down throw to Antonio Williams on 3rd and short. Tigers are forced to punt as the offensive struggles continue. Clemson has 29 yards of offense this quarter.

Clemson will starts at the BC 24-yard line thanks to the punt return from Antonio Williams. Let's see if the Tigers can get it in the end zone before the half.

HALF: Clemson 10, Boston College 3

The first half was the fewest in any half this season and Dabo Swinney just noted on the TV broadcast that the Tigers were outplayed in the first half, and that's very clear. We'll see if they can come out and play cleaner in the 2nd half.

DJU fires it downfield to Joseph Ngata to a 38-yard TD reception for the first of two explosive plays. He hit Beaux Collins on the play before.

That's a 5 play drive to quickly increase the Tigers' lead to 17-3 with 11:50 to play in the third. That's the energy that was missing with this offense in the first half.

Tre Williams brought the pressure on 3rd down as BC is forced to punt. You can start to feel the momentum shifting towards Clemson. This is a huge series to create separation.

10:09 to play in the third. Tigers up 17-3.

DJU is sacked and the Eagles will start excellent field position -- another big series for the defense coming up. Can the defensive line continue to create pressure?

Clemson leads BC 17-3 with 4:48 to play in the third quarter.

Etinosa Reuben blocks the field goal for BC as the Eagles get nothing out of a decent drive.

XT brought pressure on that third down play. Tigers with the ball on the move now.

Clemson scores on the first play of the quarter. DJU finds Beaux Collins wide open over the middle for a 10-yard TD reception. DJ moved the safety's eyes and that's what made it come open

Tigers lead 24-3 with 14:57 to play in the contest.

These Clemson games are so strange-- just lack pop, then BOOM a big play.
