10. A Consistent Kicking Game

One of the first expectations I have for the 2018 Clemson football season is for the Tigers to have a consistent kicking game.

Dabo Swinney talked very highly of all three kickers- Alex Spence, Greg Huegel and BT Potter. Swinney said that Spence is kicking with a new confidence and that Huegel is back to what he was before the ACL tear.

If those things are true, the Tigers should have a “lights out” kicker this season.

Anything inside 35-40 yards should be almost automatic. Having a consistent kicking game opens up a variety of options for the coaches.
