Well, the offensive breakthrough performance finally happened. And it happened when the Tigers needed it most, facing a top-ten team inside of Death Valley with the nation's longest active home winning streak on the line.
Clemson put up the most points against an FBS opponent this season as well as racking up over 500 total yards of offense, also the most on the season to date.
Quarterback DJ Uiagalelei threw the ball well and the offensive line protected him well and did not allow a sack. The Tigers rushed the ball very effectively against the Demon Deacons as well, as both Kobe Pace and Will Shipley eclipsed the 100-yard mark for Clemson.
