Top-ranked Clemson controlled the game at Wake Forest 37-13 on Saturday in front of an empty stadium at Truist Field.
The Tigers (1-0, 1-0 ACC) dominated the Demon Deacons (0-1, 0-1 ACC) in every facet of the game to start the season and conference play with a win for the sixth straight season.
Trevor Lawrence led the way for the Tigers as he completed 22-of-28 passes for 351 yards and a touchdown and also rushed for a pair of touchdowns. Young players also shone on the defensive line and limited Wake Forest until backups entered the game late in the second half.
