Trevor Lawrence makes it look easy.
Time and time again, NC State dared the freshman quarterback to throw an out to the field side coming off the opposite hash. Time and time again, Lawrence made its defense look silly.
Clemson’s quarterback looked like a quarterback who was ready to play in the NFL with the type of throws he was making in the second-ranked Tigers’ 41-7 victory over No. 22 NC State on Saturday. He made it look so easy, most of the 81,295 fans in attendance did not really understand how difficult those throws were.
“He puts a lot of pressure on the defense, that’s for sure,” Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said during his teleconference with the media on Sunday.
