CLEMSON — There was one change about Clemson’s offense during its 28-20 victory over North Carolina on Saturday.

The Tigers (2-1, 1-0 ACC) easily had their best offensive game of the season in Saturday’s come-from-behind victory at Memorial Stadium. They racked up a season-high 401 total yards, including 365 of those yards in the last 35 minutes of the game.

Why was the Clemson offense better?

What did the Tigers do differently against a UNC defense that had allowed very little yards and points through the first two games?

Clemson offensive coordinator Chad Morris was in the press box, which is a major change.

“We just we talked about that this week,” Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said after the game. “Obviously, we struggled the first couple games and with the green dot (on the quarterback) and just down there (on the sideline) it’s chaos down there and he’s got like boards and all kind of stuff.

“He’s got a lot going on and I just felt like he probably should go up and just kind of get out of the chaos where he can really sit down and spread out and really (communicate), starting with Tait (Reynolds).”

Clemson’s offense was much better, once it got going. The Tigers struggled through the first 25 minutes of the game, amassing just 36 yards. However, they ended the first half with an 18-play, 88-yard drive that resulted in a field goal.

That drive got things jump-started, as Clemson finished the afternoon with 215 passing yards and 186 rushing yards.

Reynolds, in his first career start, completed 20 of 29 passes with one touchdown and one interception.

“I just felt like it would really help him with the green dot to be in that type of environment where he’s not on the sideline,” Swinney said. “He’s not having to manage people and stuff and he could really manage the clock better and communicate that way. So, that was the decision.”

During his first stint at Clemson from 2011-’14, Morris spent all four seasons on the sideline, which he did during the first two games this season.
