‘Boom’: Third-ranked Clemson annihilates Gamecocks

COLUMBIA — Trevor Lawrence completed an ACC single-game record 18 straight passes, while throwing for 295 yards and three touchdowns. He also ran for a career-high 66 yards as No. 3 Clemson had a workman like 38-3 victory over rival South Carolina Saturday at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia.

Lawrence threw touchdown passes of 10, 65 and 16 yards to Tee Higgins and Justyn Ross. It marked Clemson’s sixth straight victory in the rivalry, the first time either has won more than five in a row since the Tigers won a series record seven straight games from 1934-’40.

Higgins hauled in three passes for 101 yards to go with his two touchdowns, while Ross had a career-high 11 catches for 111 yards.
