Freshman Jackson Carman stepped up Saturday night after Senior Mitch Hyatt exited the game on two different occasions with a stinger. The Ohio-native played meaningful snaps in the second quarter and finished out the game after Hyatt left for good in the third quarter.
Carman helped keep Boston College defensive end Zach Allen at bay as second-ranked Clemson defeated the No. 17 Eagles 27-7. Allen finished the day with no sacks, a tackle for loss, pass break up and two quarterback hurries.
The left tackle knew what to do when his number got called on and filled in well for his first meaningful snaps.
