CLEMSON — When the Clemson Tigers take to the field Saturday, it will be with what is widely regarded as one of the best offensive lines in college football.

With four returning starters, including preseason All-ACC selection Tyrone Crowder and Mitch Hyatt, the only vacancy comes at center. Redshirt junior Justin Falcinelli is looking to use his brains, and his brawn, to prove the center is the smartest guy on the team.

“We’re a little untested at center, losing (two-time All-ACC starting center) Jay Guillermo, but I’ve got all the confidence in the world in Justin Falcinelli,” offensive line coach Robbie Caldwell said.
