Monday morning thoughts: Trips to Atlanta are fun again, all eyes on quarterbacks

Trips to Atlanta are fun again.

There was a time when a trip to play in Atlanta almost meant a certain loss for the Clemson program, but that turned around and the Tigers have won a bowl game, a kickoff classic, and two straight games against Georgia Tech inside the city limits.

That includes Saturday’s 49-21 thrashing of Georgia Tech, a game that might signify the changing of the guard at quarterback for the Clemson program. I understand that’s been the hot topic all weekend so I’ll jump right in with an opinion.

Many people feel like the coaches should have anointed Trevor Lawrence as the starter to begin the season, but I think this has been handled the right way by the staff.
