Ever since the spring, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney was up front about his quarterback competition. He said once there was a sign someone had separated, everyone will know it.
Everyone saw the separation last week in Clemson’s 28-point win at Georgia Tech.
Trevor Lawrence threw four touchdown passes and led the second-ranked Tigers to five touchdowns in the six possessions he led the offense.
It was obvious to most everyone at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta that Lawrence had separated himself from Kelly Bryant in Clemson’s quarterback competition. The true freshman finished the afternoon 13-of-18 for 176 yards to go along with his four touchdown passes.
