The Clemson defense swarmed Virginia when they last met in 2013
In what has become a December tradition for Clemson, the Tigers make their fifth straight appearance in the ACC Championship Game Saturday night in Charlotte, and will be facing their fifth different opponent from the Coastal Division. This time it’s the Virginia Cavaliers who will have the chance to slow down the Tiger express to five straight championships.

The Cavs are coming off a thrilling win over Virginia Tech, breaking a 15 year losing streak to their rivals in the process. They feature one of the nation’s most athletic quarterbacks in Bryce Perkins who has passed for over 2900 yards and rushed for over 600 yards, one of only three quarterbacks to accomplish that this season.

Clemson won the first 29 games in the series but Virginia has gone 8-9 against the Tigers since then. This will be their first meeting since 2013.

Earlier this week some of the Tigers talked about the matchup with Virginia.
