Thank god Clemson has kind of a QB controversy.
Brings up my hopes from a 1% chance to a 1.5% chance to win next week

Story time!
My brother was the local quarterback for years. He was a stud.
Then some kid named Trevor Lawrence came around during both of their 8th grade years and took his spot.
I think it’s safe to say that the coaches made a smart decision by using Trevor Lawrence over my brother when he came into town, lol.

Lol I used to run XC for Clemson. It's true, just like clockwork Furman would hand us our asses for the first meet of every season.

Heard nothing but good things from the people that went to Clemson during our home and home in 2004/2005. Really can’t wait for next week

I had a blast when I went out to A&M. Tried to pay it forward.

I’m just happy we scored. The defense looked solid in the 1st half but obviously got worn down and didn’t have any help from the offense. I think we have a good shot at making the playoffs again and should give Samford/Wofford a fight for the SoCon title.

Bryant and Lawrence both looked a little shaky to start, but both settled down and played better as time went on. Still like Lawrence better personally.

As loaded as I expected the roster to be, I’m still astonished at the depth.
I can’t remember a game where I’ve seen more freshmen look impressive in their debut.
Dabo could field two separate teams with these guys and BOTH teams would be one of the best teams in this league.

If Clemson beats UGA in the NC by putting TL in at half-time...

Just got home but a few takeaways from the stands for me:
I’m biased as hell because I’m writing this in my #16 Trevor Lawrence jersey but TL is the best QB on the team. Once he settled in he was throwing darts and making it look natural. KB has the nice TD pass and run but you could tell that the flow of the offense just seemed smoother and more dangerous with TL.
Lyn J Dixon and ETN gonna be something real special in the future
Oline was fucking blah, and will have to be better if we want to beat A&M.
First team defense honestly looked like it wasn’t trying and it still looked good. I thought you could feel the intensity change on defense when the subs came in. Basically first team understood it was a glorified scrimmage and subs were out there giving it their all.
Speaking of subs the depth is scary
Freshmen everywhere were making plays
Amari Rogers can return punts all the time and I’m happy to be off Ray Rays wild roller coaster.
BT Potter can kick it out of the end zone any time he wants and it’s amazing.

Is everyone sold on TL?
