1. Tua Tagovailoa

Tua Tagovailoa isn’t completely healthy, but that didn’t hurt him against Oklahoma.

The hyper-talented sophomore finished completing 24-of-27 passes for 318 yards and four touchdowns.

Now, he won’t face a defense like Oklahoma this week. Clemson will have a good game plan for him and it certainly won’t come as easy this week.

But, Tagovailoa is easily the best quarterback the Tigers have seen all season.

dark. Next. Bama will key in on Hunter Renfrow on 3rd down

He can make all the throws and is able to beat you with his legs, as well. It will be interesting to see how his ankle holds up, but it’s clear the sophomore will be a huge threat to that Clemson defense.
