BLACKSBURG, Va. -- Another week, another upset in the ACC. Clemson did it again. With its win over Virginia Tech, Clemson became the first ACC team to defeat three straight ranked opponents. It's been an impressive run for Clemson, which has finally found some consistency. Here's a look back at some highlights of the game:
How the game was won:Clemson had the better quarterback in Tajh Boyd, and the Tigers were able to put pressure on Virginia Tech quarterback Logan Thomas and keep him off his feet in the second half. The Hokies' passing game wasn't a factor, and David Wilson -- as effective and dazzling as he was -- couldn't do it all by himself. The Hokies were inept on third downs, and the punting problems
