A win is a win, and although the score wasn’t pretty, Clemson made enough plays in a clash of talent-rich rosters.
After a second look at the game, here’s how Clemson grades:
Offense: B
Auburn’s speed defensively was a shock to the system – especially early – for junior starter Kelly Bryant and company, but after taking some licks, Bryant adjusted to the flow of the game to make big plays going into the half and in the second half.
I’m kind of a grading on a curve with the caliber of that defense and a new starting QB here.
