There was a scary moment at Clemson on Saturday night when a player was carted off the sideline and sent to the hospital.
Louisville linebacker Benjamin Perry was injured against the Tigers and sent to an ambulance.
The details of the injury are not known, but Perry spent several minutes lying on the ground as coaches Jeff Brohm and Dabo Swinney checked on him.

Perry was initially helped by trainers off the field, secured by a neck strap. But as soon as he got to the sidelines, he was put to bed in the bowels of the field and sent to the hospital by ambulance.
Perry was “alert and talking” when he left the field, and even had a chance to talk to his mother, who was not at the game, on the phone.
