Shipley shows out as Clemson takes down Louisiana Tech.

Dabo Swinney and the Tigers remain undefeated as No.5 Clemson took down Louisiana Tech 48-20 Saturday night at Death Valley.

Starting running back Will Shipley had his best performance of the season, making his impact felt on the game. Shipley took 12 carries for 139 yards and two touchdowns. He averaged 11.6 yards per carry while adding two catches for 14 yards.

DJ Uiagalelei was solid under center for the Tigers completing 17 of 29 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns. He was also active on the ground, running the ball nine times for 62 yards.

On the defensive side of the ball, the unit was somewhat underwhelming though they were missing multiple starters. The defensive line didn’t allow an inch on the ground allowing just 6 yards on 21 attempts. It was through the air where Louisiana Tech did their damage, throwing the ball for 311 yards.

Now 3-0, we will next see Swinney and the Tigers Saturday, Septemeber 24th, when they travel to Winston-Salem (N.C.) to take on Sam Hartman and Wake Forest.
