Defensive tackle Christian Wilkins is expected to make his 41st career start, which would break Jim Stuckey's school record for starts by a defensive tackle (40 from ).

Clemson entered the game with a 4-0 record, a No. 7 AP ranking and had recently won at Florida State. Duke went on to tie for the ACC Championship that year. Clemson finished that year 10-2 and ranked in the Top 10 and was the ACC s highest ranked team despite finishing third in the ACC standings. 1995: Raymond Priester rushed for a school-record 263 yards to lead the Tiger offense in a Tiger victory. On the other side of the line of scrimmage that day, Brian Dawkins had three interceptions in the first quarter to set a school record for interceptions in a quarter and in a half while tying the school record for interceptions in a single game. Clemson's second-most prolific rushing game also took place against Duke when Cliff Austin rushed for 260 yards in a Clemson victory in : Clemson and Duke met in the first overtime game between two ACC teams. The Tigers won the contest by the unusual overtime score of David Richardson kicked a field goal on Clemson s possession, then Rahim Abdullah intercepted a pass and ran 63 yards for a score, giving Clemson the nine-point win. 2002: Charlie Whitehurst made his first career start against the Blue Devils and completed passes for 420 yards and four touchdowns. The 420 passing yards set a record that stood until Tajh Boyd's 428-yard day against Wake Forest in LAST MEETING VS. DUKE Clemson 56, Duke 20 (Nov. 3, 2012 at Durham, N.C.) No. 10 Clemson ran out to a lead in the first quarter and never looked back, collecting a win to improve to 8-1 on the year. Clemson gained 718 yards, which at the time represented the second-most in a single-game in school history. The game at Wallace Wade Stadium was the first night game in the history of the series. Quarterback Tajh Boyd completed passes for 344 yards with five touchdown passes, including three to DeAndre Hopkins, who finished the day with 128 yards on four receptions. Four of Boyd's five touchdown passes came in the first quarter, including three to Hopkins and one to Sammy Watkins. He added his fifth touchdown pass of the first half in the second quarter on a 41-yard pass to Martavis Bryant. During the contest, Boyd broke Woodrow Dantzler s school record for career touchdown responsibility and Hopkins did the same with receiving touchdown marks on both a career and season basis. Clemson also racked up 334 rushing yards despite no individual player exceeding 85 yards on the day. Roderick McDowell led the Clemson ground game with 83 yards on 13 carries, while Boyd (72), D.J. Howard (65), Zac Brooks (62), Cole Stoudt (28) and Andre Ellington (26) all contributed at least 25 rushing yards as well. Clemson earned the runaway victory despite losing the turnover margin, 4-0. LAST HOME GAME VS. DUKE Clemson 31, Duke 7 (Nov. 15, 2008) Clemson's most recent meeting with Duke in Death Valley came in only the fourth game of Dabo Swinney s head coaching career during his stint as interim head coach. Clemson earned Swinney's first home win, 31-7, thanks to a 14-point third period. The Tigers totaled 466 yards of total offense in the Homecoming game, Clemson s 14th straight win against Duke at Memorial Stadium. C.J. Spiller was named the ACC Offensive Back of the Week for his 201-yard day in all-purpose yards. He had 10 carries for 71 yards rushing and added seven catches for 108 receiving yards, the most receiving yards by a running back in Clemson history. He had two touchdowns in the game, one receiving and one rushing. Cullen Harper completed passes for 292 yards and a touchdown. Willy Korn came off the bench to complete 7-12 passes as well. Aaron Kelly had 10 receptions for 96 yards. Clemson s defense held Duke to 83 yards rushing and 85 yards receiving. Michael Hamlin and Brandon Maye had 10 tackles each, while Kavel Conner added nine. ALABAMA TIES Two Alabama graduates will lead their respective coaching staffs this Saturday. Duke Coach David Cutcliffe, a 1976 Alabama graduate, will lead Duke, while Dabo Swinney, a 1993 Alabama grad, will lead Clemson. The two are separated by only one career win, as Swinney enters the contest with 111 career victories to his credit, while Cutcliffe enters the game with 110. Cutcliffe did not play football at Alabama but was a 4

5 NOTES student assistant coach under Bear Bryant. Swinney played for Alabama for four years, lettering three, including the 1992 season when Alabama won the National Championship. He played and coached under College Football Hall of Fame Head Coach Gene Stallings. There is plenty of history involving Alabama, Clemson and Duke. Wallace Wade, for whom Duke's stadium is named, was the head coach at Alabama from He then moved on to coach at Duke. He took Alabama's 1930 team to the Rose Bowl, and one of his starting players was Frank Howard, who later became Clemson's legendary head coach from and the man for whom the field is named at Memorial Stadium. RUSHING SUCCESS VS. DUKE Clemson has a history of success against Duke in the running game. Clemson players have recorded 23 games of at least 100 yards rushing vs. Duke, more than against any other opponent. That includes a pair of 260-yard games that rank as the top two running games in Clemson history. Raymond Priester had 263 against Duke in 1995 and Cliff Austin had 260 against the Blue Devils in Both of those games were at Clemson. Kenny Flowers had three consecutive 100-yard rushing games against Duke in the 1980s, the only time a Clemson running back has rushed for at least 100 yards three times in a career against the same opponent.
