Clemson football has beaten Auburn and Louisville in back to back weeks. A vanilla win over Boston College is nothing to be concerned about.

The final score (34-7 Clemson) was lopsided, but the majority of this game was close. Boston College entered the fourth quarter tied 7-7 with the defending national champions.
While some might see that as a reason to concern, especially with Alabama walloping Vanderbilt 59-0, there’s no reason to worry about Clemson. Here are three reasons the Tigers were never really in much trouble at all.
3. Kelly Bryant might not have to throw the ball much this year
When Deshaun Watson departed for the NFL it was assumed that the man who took over in his stead would not be as mobile as he was. That’s not an unfair assumption, but Bryant is set on proving that narrative to be false. Following in the footsteps of Brandon Wimbush, who ran circles over the Eagles last weekend, Bryant toted the rock 22 times on Saturday for 106 yards and one touchdown.
Bryant wasn’t the only one rushing the football for the Tigers. The three-headed rushing attack of Travis Etienne, Tavien Feaster and Adam Choice were effective once again. They combined for 245 yards on the ground and three touchdowns.
