2015 recruiting class

The 2015 recruiting class was dominant in all phases of the game against Syracuse. Deon Cain had his best game so far in his young career, as did Tanner Muse.

Deon Cain led the Tigers in receiving with 5 receptions for 125 yards and 2 touchdowns. Cain’s blend of size and speed was simply too much for Syracuse’s secondary.

Kelly Bryant completed 2 of his 4 passing attempts for 21 yards.

Tucker Israel completed his lone passing attempt for 3 yards.

Van Smith added 3 tackles against the Orange, which brings him to 64 on the year.

Tanner Muse had 3 tackles, 2 of which were bone rattling. Muse also returned an interception for a 64 yard touchdown.

Mark Fields was lined up against Syracuse’s best wide reciever, Amba Etta-Tawo, for much of the game. Fields recorded 2 tackles.

J.D. Davis had 3 tackles.

Jalen Williams, Clelin Ferrell, Christian Wilkins, and Albert Huggins each recorded 2 tackles.

This group of sophomore’s continues to show their maturity in their play. There was no let down after the Tigers big victory over Florida State, each and every player on the team came out focused and ready to play. Dabo Swinney and his staff have done a great job of both, assembling and developing this team.
