Clemson’s offensive line had a rough go of it in the Tigers’ season-opening loss to Georgia, but Clemson coach Dabo Swinney praised the performance of one of his veterans up front.
After plenty of speculation during the preseason, Matt Bockhorst’s move to center became official Saturday. It was the first career start at the position for the fifth-year senior, who started every game at left guard last season.
“He actually did a pretty good job,” Swinney said. “I was fairly pleased with him, his effort and his knowledge. First time really playing that many snaps at center and live reps there.
