  "account": "Starting Clemson left guard Elyjah Thurmon is listed as questionable for their upcoming home game against No. 4 Miami, according to the Tigers' initial injury report. Thurmon left Clemson's 24-10 victory over California with an injury and did not return for the game, with sophomore Gavin Blanchard taking his place. Coach Dabo Swinney stated that Thurmon's injury is day-to-day, with the starting left guard's status being uncertain. Backup quarterback Christopher Vizzina, who suffered a small fracture in his elbow, is also listed as questionable for the game. Swinney said that Vizzina is practicing and should be available against Miami, but Trent Pearman would take the starting role if Vizzina is not fully fit. Clemson's injury report also lists several players as out, including Polo Anderson, Shavar Young Jr., Cole Turner, David Eziomume, Kourtney Kelly, Mason Wade, Markus Strong, Armon Mason, Elyjah Thurmon (again), Xavian Lucas, and LB Ezekiel Marcelin Jr.",
