Key No. 2: Offensive line play needs to be noticeably better

We’ve all begun to notice that the offensive line has struggled to get a consistent push in the vast majority of games this season. That’s by no means a controversial statement.

As a result, Clemson hasn’t been able to establish much of a running game in most of its matchups this year.

The Tigers need to be able to have some success in the running game Saturday night and that all starts up front. For Clemson football to win this game against a formidable Notre Dame defensive front, the offensive line is going to have to play much better.

The talent is there, in my opinion, but will the execution and scheme follow?
