All eyes were on Clemson’s returning quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, Thursday against Georgia Tech. The Cartersville, Georgia, native had a historic 2018 season, earning the starting role as a freshman, being in the Heisman conversation, and ultimately winning the coveted National Championship against the highly touted Alabama Crimson Tide.
Lawrence, who had a lot of hype surrounding him heading into this new season, helped the Tigers open their season in winning fashion with a 52-14 victory over the Yellow Jackets.
“It was great. We did a great job, the offensive line did great, and obviously Travis [Etienne] did too,” said Lawrence, who finished the game 13-of-23 passing for 168 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions.
