Travis Etienne discusses his impressive 203-yard performance |
Clemson sophomore running back
Travis Etienne talked about the running game in the comeback victory against Syracuse on Saturday afternoon.
“The offensive line created tremendous holes for us to just get out there and run free. Our job is to make the safety miss, and the offensive line helped us take that to the next level. Also, the receivers being who they are, they got some great blocks down the field and that just really helped us. “I feel like it was a great win. We faced adversity throughout the game. We just couldn’t get it right. We just had to keep fighting and keep pushing through. It just really builds character, and I think the team needed it.” Etienne had a career-high 27 rushes for 203 yards and three touchdowns. He became the first Clemson player to rush for a touchdown in five straight games since Wayne Gallman's seven-game streak in 2016.
