Trevor Lawrence admitted following No. 2 Clemson’s 35-6 win over Duke Saturday that he does not know much about the Clemson-South Carolina rivalry. However, after watching the Tigers rout of the Gamecocks in Columbia last season he knows it is intense.
“I’m not from here so I don’t know a ton about the rivalry,” Clemson’s freshman quarterback said. “I watched them last year when they were at South Carolina and you could just see the hostility and just the atmosphere. Anyone watching can tell it’s an intense one.”
It’s also a rivalry the Tigers have owned for the most part, especially in the last four years.
