who was ejected late in the fourth quarter of last Thursday's win over NC State for punching Wolfpack defensive back Jarvis Byrd will not play against Wake Forest this Saturday.

"Total embarrassment to this program," Dabo Swinney said on Sunday's teleconference. "That can't happen."

Swinney said Battle was "immediately remorseful." Battle will be disciplined every practice till the game on Saturday and will also sit out the game on Saturday. Swinney said that type of thing will not be tolerated from Battle ever again at Clemson.
