WINSTON-SALEM, NC – No. 4 Clemson needed to make a statement heading into the open date, and that statement was made loud and clear.
The Tigers (6-0, 3-0 ACC) rushed for 400 yards and annihilated Wake Forest (3-3, 0-2) 63-3 in front of an announced sellout crowd at BB&T Field Saturday afternoon, with all 72 players earning snaps. Travis Etienne led the way with 10 carries for 167 yards and three touchdowns, while Adam Choice (128) and Lyn-J Dixon (163) each recorded 100-yard outings.
Things were so comfortable for the Tigers that Hunter Renfrow punted in the fourth quarter, then followed that with a series at quarterback, completing a pass to Will Swinney.
