Notebook: O-Line is the strength of the offense
Everybody talks about Clemson’s defensive line, and deservedly so.
The Tigers have perhaps the best defensive line on the country with All-Americans Christian Wilkins, Clelin Ferrell, Austin Bryant and Dexter Lawrence up front. However, can the offensive line be just as good? Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney thinks so.
Swinney says his first-team offensive line, consisting of All-American left tackle Mitch Hyatt, left guard John Simpson, All-ACC center Justin Falcinelli, right guard Sean Pollard and right tackle Tremayne Anchrum, is the strength of the Clemson offense.
“That is one area where I am really encouraged, especially with what I saw on Saturday,” he said.
