Can Garrett Riley bring the explosiveness back to the Clemson offense?
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney hired Riley away from TCU last week and put Riley in charge of a Clemson offense that has lacked explosiveness the last two seasons. Go back to the 2018 season, and Clemson led the nation in plays of 50-plus yards with 23. There were 13 plays of 60-plus yards, and the Tigers were second nationally that season with a whopping 104 plays of 20-plus yards.
Clemson managed only 58 plays that gained at least 20 yards last season, which ranked 66th nationally; TCU had 91 such plays, which ranked the Horned Frogs fourth.
