Clemson 10 - 10 Virginia Tech (Halftime)

After Clemson's field goal, Tech went three-and-out.

Clemson got the ball, was forced to punt, but then got another chance when Tech was called for roughing the punter. Tech's defense held again, and the Hokies took over the ball on their own 17. They then put together a very nice drive -- helped in great part by a very silly roughing-the-passer penalty -- and ended the half by kicking a 41-yard field goal to end the half.

A very good first half -- one worthy of both the ACC championship and the UCFC. Clemson has plainly recovered from whatever had plagued them during their blowout losses to N.C. State and South Carolina, while Tech does not look as dominant as it did last week against UVA. These two teams have dominated the UCFC for most of the season, and it's only fitting that they are going at it hammer and tongs tonight.
