2. Offensive Improvements

Through the first two games, the Clemson football offense has had a few struggles.

The Tigers couldn’t get a passing game going against Georgia Tech- though they still scored 52 points- and then scored just 24 points against Texas A&M. Clemson’s offense left a lot of points on the field in both games, to be honest, and it will be interesting to see if the unit takes another step forward this weekend.

It’s only a matter of time before Trevor Lawrence, Travis Etienne and Co. fall into midseason form. When they do, it’s over for opposing defenses.
