The one thing College Football Playoff’s top contenders must avoid as the season draws to an end is crucial injuries. Clemson almost had to deal with that on Saturday.
During a match-up against South Carolina, a defender decided he was going to hit Tigers QB Trevor Lawrence no matter what so he took it upon himself to hit him from behind after he had already thrown the football.
With the Tigers up double-digits in the second half, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney may want to go ahead and get him out of this game.
