4. The offense is starting to click

The offense didn’t look in sync to begin the season, but the unit is slowly coming into its own.

Trevor Lawrence has looked much crisper in his passes and has made better decisions with the football as of late. Travis Etienne has been exploding for big yardage totals throughout the last month after being a bit quiet earlier in the season.

We’re starting to see the wide receiver core showcase its talent and depth, with the likes of Tee Higgins, Amari Rodgers, Justyn Ross, Diondre Overton, Frank Ladson and Joseph Ngata all at Lawrence’s disposal.

Though the offensive line struggled a bit in the UNC game, the unit has been lights out for the most part since then.

When you have as much talent in the skill-positions, and an offensive line like the Tigers do, there’s no reason to believe this offense can be shutdown when it begins to click on all cylinders. And that is happening right before our eyes.
