Clemson has a lot of skill led by quarterback Trevor Lawrence, Travis Etienne and wide receiver Tee Higgins. Despite their struggles at times, this team has the ability to make big plays…

Steve Addazio is once again on the hot seat. If he wasn’t after the Kansas loss two weeks ago, he is now.

The Eagles were in good position to win…
