1. Career Rushing Yards

Travis Etienne is in prime position to leave Clemson as the all-time leading rusher in just three seasons.

After two seasons, Etienne is up to 2,424 yards rushing. He set the school record for rushing yards in a single season last year with 1,658.

Now, he is just 1,542 yards away from tying Raymond Priester’s record of 3,966 yards for the all-time leading rusher in Clemson football history.

Etienne will need a season very similar to last year’s to break the record, but he is in prime position to do so.

dark. Next. 3 Tiger commits inside Rivals' top-10

He should be getting more carries this year and will be the feature back- at least at times- this season. He’ll still share playing time with Lyn-J Dixon and another running back, but I think he has the talent and ability to leave Tiger Town with the record before this year comes to a close.
