Clemson LB has epic response to Desmond Howard's criticism

Clemson linebacker Ben Boulware was the vocal leader of the Tigers' national championship defense. He amazingly went on a Twitter hiatus back in August after writing, " One last ride. See y'all in Tampa." He was right and didn't tweet again until after the national title game.

On Tuesday, he was back with another epic use of Twitter.

Boulware tweeted a screenshot of ESPN's Desmond Howard calling Clemson's linebackers the "achilles heel" of the defense from the Nov. 5 College GameDay broadcast. Boulware got a tattoo of the College Football Playoff trophy and guess where he put it …

Howard's criticism wasn't out of line, but Boulware certainly didn't appreciate the slight.

Not only does he have a championship, but now, Boulware also has one of the better responses you'll ever see on Twitter. That's like winning twice.
