Trevor Lawrence saw his interception-less streak come to an end Saturday against Georgia Tech in Atlanta, but Clemson’s star quarterback was otherwise stellar while leading the top-ranked Tigers to a 52-7 lead at halftime.
Lawrence completed 22 of his 27 passes for 391 yards and threw for five touchdowns in two quarters against the Yellow Jackets. The 391 yards and five touchdown passes are the most for Lawrence in a half in his career.
With his performance in the first half, Lawrence now has 81 career touchdown passes and moved past Russell Wilson (76) and Chris Weinke (79) for the fourth-most touchdown passes in ACC history behind Tajh Boyd (107), Phillip Rivers (95) and Deshaun Watson (90).
