TALLAHASSEE, FL – Clemson was able to defeat FSU Saturday night on the back of success in the middle eight, but saw a lack of success after the first few drives of the second half. Offensive coordinator Brandon Streeter said the offense didn’t play conservatively and stayed in attack mode.
Clemson fell behind 7-0 and 14-7 early as FSU found success in the running game, then reeled off 27 consecutive points to take a 34-14 lead in the third quarter.
And then the offense went into a shell. The Tigers had 247 yards of total offense at the half, managed just 77 more in the third quarter and a paltry 46 in the fourth quarter.
