We are just a day away from Clemson’s season opener against Georgia Tech, who will face off in a Labor Day night matchup at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta with expectations for this Clemson team to come out the gates in a decisive fashion.
After an underwhelming campaign for the Tigers last season, where the team managed to win six straight to end the season, finishing with a 10-3 record, this group needs to show up against Georgia Tech and start the team off on the right track. The question is, can they?
With one of the best defenses in the country, it shouldn’t be a problem though the defense can only keep points off the board and maybe put some on it any given game. The key is whether starting quarterback DJ Uiagalelei and the offense can get things going.
A week one matchup against Georgia Tech is a solid test for this team to prove that they can produce up to expectations.
