The Spark: Etienne's success driving the Clemson offense
Etienne has broken the 100-yard mark in three straight gamesCLEMSON – Clemson’s offense has been operating at a high level the last three weeks, and the spark has come not from the quarterback spot or any of the wide receivers. The spark comes from running back Travis Etienne.
The Tigers have averaged 306.7 rushing yards per game the last three weeks, which has led to marks of 551 total yards, 552 total yards and 674 total yards of offense in all three wins. Etienne has averaged 142.7 yards per game during the three-game stretch despite not getting more than 16 carries in any of the games.
“Travis Etienne has been awesome. That is probably the biggest thing,” head coach Dabo Swinney said.
