3 critical factors for Clemson to beat Georgia Tech, start 1-0 in ACC play

The No. 12 Clemson Tigers appear to be in a slumber to start the year, struggling against LSU in the opener and Troy last week.

Sometimes, the way to get out of a funk or jumpstart the vibes is a road trip. Clemson is hoping that’s the case Saturday at noon when the Tigers take on the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.

As much as Clemson has struggled statistically on offense and maybe not lived up to the high expectations defensively at times, the opportunity to start 1-0 in ACC play could spark better play. This is a huge game with major implications down the road when it comes to who goes to Charlotte in December for the conference title game.
