impressed future NFL teams with his 3 tackles for loss, pass breakup and his 33rd sack in the 40-6 rout of Oklahoma in the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl.

(via NFL.com) Given the head-to-head competition he faced, there is no doubt Clemson defensive end Vic Beasley made some draft-day money with his performance against Oklahoma in the Russell Athletic Bowl in Orlando Dec. 29. A senior, Beasley went up against arguably the top offensive tackle tandem in college football in Sooners fifth-year seniors Tyrus Thompson and Daryl Williams. Both were both first-team All-Big 12, and both are in the 6-foot-5, 330-pound range."

Beasley holds the Clemson career record for most sacks with 33 (4th in ACC history) and is the current active FBS leader and also has an impressive 52.5 career tackles for loss (4th in Clemson history).

He was named to four All-American teams after staying for his senior season at Clemson.
