Sometimes playing in front of friends and family members can be added pressure for a player. But that is not the case for Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
In the two times Lawrence has made his way home to the Atlanta area to play in front of his old high school teammates and family, he has not had any trouble whatsoever. In fact, the Cartersville, Ga., native has been a lot of trouble for his hometown team.
After throwing four touchdowns in leading Clemson to a 28-point victory over Georgia Tech in 2018, Lawrence returned to Atlanta on Saturday to throw five touchdown passes in leading the top-ranked Tigers to a 73-7 victory over the Yellow Jackets.
