CLEMSON – The Tigers took care of business Saturday afternoon, but the game only added fuel to an already heated quarterback battle.
Clemson (1-0) beat Furman (0-1) 48-7 on a hot and steamy afternoon in Death Valley.
Kelly Bryant finished the day completing 10-of-16 passes for 127 yards and a touchdown and rushing for 44 yards and a score on five carries.
Trevor Lawrence – the freshman out of Cartersville (GA) – completed 9-of-15 passes for 137 yards and three touchdowns.
OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE GAME: Amari Rodgers did his damage on offense and special teams and may be the most overlooked player on Clemson’s offense.
