When Trevor Lawrence walked on to the practice field Friday behind the Allen Reeves Football Complex in Clemson, it was a little bit different than last year.
Last year, Lawrence was a true freshman that was a little green behind the ears. He was the No. 2 guy behind senior Kelly Bryant, who had just led the Tigers to another ACC Championship and an appearance in the College Football Playoff.
However, Lawrence beat out Bryant for the starting job by Week 5 of the 2018 regular season and then subsequently became the first freshman quarterback since 1985 to lead his team to a national championship.
