ATLANTA — After scooping up as many tickets as he could this week for all his family and friends, Trevor Lawrence put on a nice show as second-ranked Clemson steamrolled Georgia Tech, 49-21, Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta.
Lawrence threw four touchdown passes while completing 13-of-18 passes for 176 yards. He threw touchdown passes of 17, 53, 3 and 30 yards to Hunter Renfrow, Justyn Ross, Travis Etienne and Tee Higgins. It was quite the homecoming for the freshman who played 45-minutes down the road in Cartersville, Ga.
The Tigers’ 49 points were the most points ever scored by a Clemson team at Bobby Dodd Stadium, surpassing the 47 points the Tigers scored in an overtime win in 2001.
