CLEMSON – Clemson fans remember the difficulty Brent Venables’ defense had with Pitt last November, and Venables told the media Tuesday that the Kent. St. offense resembles Pitt’s.

Fifth-ranked Clemson hosts Kent St. Saturday at noon in Death Valley.

“Yeah, they're very multiple with what they do. They've got speedy receivers on the outside and they use them in a variety of way - the jet sweeps and attacking vertically,” Venables said. “They've got a couple of good running backs.
