The Citadel runs a triple-option offense that can give even Power 5 opponents fits.
The Bulldogs used it to upset South Carolina in 2015 and rushed for 344 yards against North Carolina last year.
But Clemson should have no problem stopping The Citadel’s attack, not only because it has superior talent, but also because it is accustomed to facing this type of offense.
Most teams only face a triple-option opponent once every few years, but Clemson faces Georgia Tech every season and has dominated the Yellow Jackets of late.
