Halftime Analysis: Offense Struggles as Clemson Trails SMU

CLEMSON — We head to halftime here at Death Valley, with Clemson trailing SMU 16-7.

The Tigers are looking for their third straight win and their first victory over a Power-4 opponent at home in almost a year.

Clemson has just 147 yards of total offense, with 75 of those coming on the lone scoring drive. The offense only has six first downs. The Tigers had 4 three-and-outs in the opening half, as well as a four-and-out where they turned it over on downs.

Vizzina Mostly Ineffective

With Cade Klubnik injured and watching from the sideline, the Clemson offense was stuck in neutral for a while with Vizzina taking the snaps.
