Monday Insider: Joyous chaos on sidelines in rout of Wake, rushing numbers rise

What was it like on the Clemson sidelines late in the Tigers’ 63-3 victory over Wake Forest Saturday afternoon in Winston-Salem? Joyous and controlled chaos.

Head coach Dabo Swinney let wide receiver Hunter Renfrow punt midway through the fourth quarter, and defensive tackle Christian Wilkins began to beg. Wilkins then saw Renfrow go into the game at quarterback and began to lobby Swinney for a chance to go in and play wide receiver.

Wilkins said last week that he feels like he is a viable option at quarterback and was miffed that Renfrow was getting a look.
