3. D.J. Uiagalelei

D.J. Uiagalelei made his Clemson football starting debut last weekend against Boston College and threw for more than 300 yards and accounted for three touchdowns.

He’s going to be relied upon to make some of those same plays this week against a more athletic Notre Dame defense that will likely throw some exotic coverage schemes in play just to try to confuse him.

Uiagalelei needs to refrain from turning the ball over and make smart decisions. He easily has the talent to get the best of that Fighting Irish defense and it will be up to him to make the plays necessary to win.
