Cullen Harper completed 14-21 passes for 140 yards and James Davis rushed for 57 yards and scored a touchdown to pace the offense in a two-hour scrimmage in Clemson Memorial Stadium on Saturday morning. It was the second major scrimmage for Tommy Bowden's football team, who will conclude Spring practice on April 14 with the Spring Game at 1:00 PM at Memorial Stadium.
While Harper and Davis stood out on offense, there were also many top defensive performances. Freshman DeAndre McDaniel had six tackles and three passes broken up, while sophomore cornerback Crezdon Butler had three tackles, a tackle for loss and an interception. Defensive End Kwam Williams had two tackles for loss, including a sack.
"It looked pretty even as far as evaluating who had the upper hand today," said Bowden. "Last Saturday the offense had the upper hand, but last Wednesday when we did a half scrimmage, the defense dominated. Today there was more back in forth. The offense would make a big play, then the defense would make a big play."
