CLEMSON, S.C. -- Clemson offensive co-ordinator Chad Morris had two words of counsel this week for Tajh Boyd: "Have fun." It appears he got the message -- loud and clear. Boyd threw for three touchdowns and rushed for another score, leading the Tigers to a 56-7 victory over Wake Forest on Saturday. The terrific performance made him the second Atlantic Coast Conference quarterback to account for 100 career TDs. "It was a fun game," Boyd said. "I got a lot of chances to smile out there." Boyds return to form was part of a solid day on several fronts for the Tigers, (4-0, 2-0), who have won their first four games for the second time in the QBs three seasons as starter. Clemson figures to be the favourite the next two weeks against Syracuse and Boston College. Then the Tigers host undefeated ACC rival Florida State on Oct. 19. Boyd accounted for five TDs in Clemsons season-opening victory against Georgia, making the quarterback a contender for the Heisman Trophy and stamping the Tigers as a team to watch this season. But Boyd was held without a scoring pass and played less than a half against South Carolina State. Then he looked out of sync in Clemsons previous game, a 26-14 win at North Carolina State. Morris thought Boyd was putting too much pressure on himself, and the quarterback said he just needed to relax to improve his play. "The biggest thing for me is just to go out and enjoy," playing football, Boyd said. "Ive pretty much accomplished everything you can accomplish in a college career, minus a couple of things. But, now Ive got to enjoy this last go-round with my guys." Boyds performance against Wake Forest left him at 102 TDs in college, joining former North Carolina State star Phillip Rivers in the ACCs century club. Boyd passed for 311 yards and ran for 69 to surpass Charlie Whitehurst as Clemsons total offence leader. Morris worked hard to get Clemsons high-speed offence back on track. "This has been a very challenging week for those guys," Morris said. "Just to get into a rhythm, get into a groove and not press." Boyd and the Tigers started fast against Wake Forest (2-3, 0-2). Boyd had touchdown throws of 64 yards to Sammy Watkins, 75 yards to D.J. Howard and 14 yards to Mike Williams as Clemson built a 35-7 halftime lead. Clemsons single-game scoring record came in an 82-24 win over Wake Forest during the Tigers national championship season in 1981 -- and they looked as if they planned to better that mark early on in this one. Clemson scored on its first three possessions, with Boyd ending his mini-slump along the way. He connected with favourite target Watkins to get the scoring started. Zac Brooks added a 10-yard touchdown run before Howard turned a simple swing pass into a second long scoring play that brought Boyd to the century mark. Rivers accounted for 112 touchdowns with the Wolfpack from 2000-03. Wake Forests defence then stepped up, with nose guard Nikita Whitlock sacking Boyd to stall one series and the Demon Deacons sending the Tigers off the field for three straight three-and-outs. But Boyd eventually cranked up the Tigers offence once again. He ended a 67-yard drive with a 2-yard TD run, powering through the line when he was initially stopped on a fourth-and-short leap. Boyds final touchdown pass went to freshman Williams, a sliding 14-yard grab that gave Clemson a 35-7 lead. Williams was in because starter Martavis Bryant was held out the opening half after he made a throat-slash gesture when he scored at North Carolina State on Sept. 19. The Tigers outgained Wake Forest 361-142 over the first 30 minutes. The Demon Deacons lone score came on Tanner Prices 10-yard pass to Sherman Ragland III in the opening period. Price had Wake Forest on the move on its next series until he fumbled on third down at the Clemson 32. The Tigers pulled away from there. "They ran a lot of blitzes on defences that made it tough for us to run a lot of offensive stuff," Price said. "Weve got to make some more plays." Things didnt get much better for Wake Forest in the second half. Boyd was back for Clemsons first series and directed a 10-play, 46-yard drive that finished with tailback C.J. Davidsons first career score. Boyd was off to the sideline after that, smiling and enjoying watching the backups play. The Demon Deacons managed just 80 yards in the second half. Coach Jim Grobe put freshman Tyler Cameron and little-used junior Patrick Thompson in at quarterback for Price. Clemson starting tailback Rod McDowell had just three carries before leaving with an ankle problem. He did not return, although Morris said he could have if the Tigers needed him to play.

Justin Dowling, Travis Morin and Francis Wathier also scored for the Stars (22-10-5), who bypassed Abbotsford for top spot in the West Division, and Mike Hedden tacked on two assists. Defenceman John Ramage was a team-worst minus-4 for the Heat (23-13-2), who dropped their fourth game in a row.

The Red Bulls are the lowest seeded team heading into their playoff opener on Wednesday night at FC Dallas, barely making the playoffs with a 1-0 win over Philadelphia in their final regular-season game. This was supposed to be a season most expected them to be fighting for the leagues best record. "Ive been saying the whole time, its not about me raising my game," the 34-year-old team captain said. "We win when the whole team plays well. You saw in the last game that the team is playing way better. Its not one or two, or three or four guys playing well. Its not about thinking one guy is going to save you now." But advancing past a slumping seventh-seeded Dallas squad in the one-game play-in might be easier with Henry and his 14 goals in the lineup. The French international missed the clincher against the Union after serving a one-game suspension for a red card for violent play in the Red Bulls penultimate game against Sporting KC. Dallas (15-12-7) comes into the game after posting a 1-3 record in its final four games to fall short of an automatic trip to the quarter-finals. However, it will have leading scorer Brek Shea and his 11 goals back in the lineup after he sat out the final loss to San Jose on Oct. 22. Dallas, in fact, rested numerous starters over the last month. The Red Bulls may do some shuffling on their front line. Midfielder Dane Richard, who scored the goal in the game against Philadelphia, may remain up front with Henry if some swelling in forward Luke Rodgers knee does not subside by game time. Rodgers, who claimed the injury happened when he was kicked in the knee early against the Union, stayed in the traiiners room Monday receiving ice and compression treatment, and was not expected to practice Tuesday.dddddddddddd Coach Hans Backe said his second-leading goal-scorer (9) is only "50-50" for the game. Still, the Red Bulls have done well while missing some of their stars. In addition to beating the Union, they also won at Dallas, 1-0, on Sept. 17 as Henry nursed an inflamed Achilles tendon. Having Henry back on the front line will provide a mental boost for a team that is 9-15-5 in its playoff history. "Yeah, theres a little bit of a boost," defender Tim Ream said. "But at the same time, weve shown we can win without him and key guys who may be missing. Whether its Thierry, or Rafa Marquez is out, we have guys who can step in and win. But having him back is definitely a good boost for us, and were looking to go in firing on all cylinders." The Red Bulls (10-8-16) head in with a 4-2-1 mark in their last seven, and may be getting hot at the right time. A win in Dallas means a trip to the home-and-home quarter-final, where they would host the top-seeded LA Galaxy in a 3 p.m. opener Sunday at Red Bull Arena. Backe said he expects Henry to raise his game. "We know that a player like Thierry, when he sniffs playoffs," he said, "he gets more and more mentally into the game." After playing just six minutes in his first playoff appearance last year due to a knee injury, Henry could make an impact in this win-and-advance game. But he said its up to everybody to make that happen. Not just him. "We have nothing to lose," Henry said. "We have to go there and its a rough place to win. Even though they had a poor run at the end, I still think theyre one of the best teams. "Were going to have to do something amazing. But it is doable." cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
