Dabo feeling good about Clemson’s kicking game: ‘It’s going to be a beautiful thing’ | The State

Clemson had its share of issues in the kicking game in 2017 and ended up bringing in a walk-on in the middle of the season as it searched for some consistency.

The Tigers finished last year having made 12 of 19 field goal attempts but were only 7-for-14 on kicks of 30 yards or more.

Clemson also missed four extra points last season as Alex Spence was up and down after starting kicker Greg Huegel suffered a torn ACL during a practice in September.

But with Spence gaining confidence at the end of last year, Huegel’s recovery going well and an Army All-American kicker set to arrive on campus this summer, Tigers coach Dabo Swinney believes Clemson’s kicking struggles are a thing of the past.
