Clemson blasted South Carolina 56-7 a year ago in a game that was for all intents and purposes over before the end of the first quarter.
I don’t expect that to be the case Saturday night at Williams-Brice Stadium as the Gamecocks look for revenge after being embarrassed in 2016.
This Tigers offense isn’t as explosive as the one that topped 40 points seven times last year. Deshaun Watson, Mike Williams and Artavis Scott are gone and Clemson is winning in a different way.
Instead of piling up passing yards and points, the Tigers are relying on their running game and defense to secure victories.
