Clemson’s goal is to leave no doubt in each game this season. On Saturday, some of the 81,500 fans were barely in their seats when the Tigers made their statement against Charlotte.
On Clemson’s second play from scrimmage, quarterback Trevor Lawrence found Tee Higgins down the far sideline for a 58-yard touchdown pass and the route was on. The top-ranked Tigers cruised from there, rolling to a 52-10 victory at Memorial Stadium in Clemson.
Lawrence finished the game 7 of 9 for 94 yards. He also threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Cornell Powell on the first play of the second quarter.
