Venables Post-Game
By Makenna Biehl
    Clemson Defensive Coordinator Brent Venables spoke with media following beating the Virginia Cavaliers 41-23. Overall, Venables thought the team had many good plays, but there were still lots of inconsistencies that the team can use as a significant learning experience. 

Venables: "We had some miscommunication and there is a lot that was really good and a lot we can learn from that wasn't very good."#ClemsonSportsNews

     Going into the game, Venables knew what to expect from Virginia quarterback Brandon Armstrong. He knew that his young defense would have to be aware of how good an athlete Armstrong is. Venables explained that his players were fighting all night to get things done, especially going up against an experienced offensive line. 

Venables on Brandon Armstrong: "He's a good runner and everything we expected."#ClemsonSportsNews

     The Tigers win over the Cavaliers makes it Clemson’s 46th consecutive win on a Saturday. Venables is proud and believes its something incredible for the “tradition-rich” Clemson. He also acknowledged Head Coach Dabo Swinney and the work that he has put in to break that record.

Venables: "It's pretty cool. 46 Saturdays in a row. That's great and pretty cool. Coach Swinney has done an amazing job and its a cool experience to be a part of."#ClemsonSportsNews
