PLAYERS TO WATCH
–QB Daniel Jones is coming off a game against North Carolina when he compiled a single-game school record of 547 yards of total offense. He did that with 361 passing yards and 186 rushing yards. It’s the fifth-highest total offensive output in ACC history by one player.
–RB Deon Jackson has 646 all-purpose yards on 47 touches across the past three games. That’s an average of 13.8 yards every time he touches the ball.
–WR T.J Rahming has three or more receptions in 17 consecutive games. He has 11 career touchdowns. He’s without a touchdown the past two games.
–LB Ben Humphreys, a senior, is the most experienced defender on the team. With LB Joe Giles-Harris potentially missing a second game in a row, Humphreys’ leadership becomes more valuable. He has played the past two games after missing a game with an injury.
SERIES HISTORY: Clemson leads Duke 36-16-1, winning the past four meetings. The teams haven’t met since 2012.
QUOTE TO NOTE: “Put our nose to the grindstone that much more.” — OT Christian Harris on the upcoming meeting with No. 2 Clemson. Duke is 28-140-6 all-time against nationally ranked teams, including 3-30-2 against foes in the top five.
