Tiger offense sees young QB battle, take steps forward in road win

The Clemson offense put together its best performance of the season on Saturday night against the Louisville Cardinals, scoring 30 points and registering 338 yards of total offense in a 30-24 nailbiter in Kentucky.

The 30 points matched the most points the offense has scored against an FBS opponent this season (30 against FSU). Quarterback DJ Uiaglalelei threw for two touchdowns and 220 yards as well as rushed in the game-winning touchdown with four minutes remaining on one leg, his best performance of the season by far.

The offense has taken its slack this season, much of it earned, but offensive coordinator Tony Elliott and Uiagalelei both made the calls and plays they needed to to help the Tigers get to 6-3 on the season.
