Clemson Could Go 9-3 With a Broken Offense | Clemson Tigers Podcast

Clemson keeps winning despite a struggling offense, raising questions about Chad Morris, Dabo Swinney, and a possible 9-3 finish. Clemson football is 6-3, bowl eligible, and still finding ways to win. But is Dabo Swinney's ability to win ugly football games hiding major problems with the Tigers' offense? After Clemson's 18-13 victory over Syracuse, the Tigers have won two straight games despite continued offensive struggles. Tait Reynolds keeps delivering critical plays, Clemson's defense is improving, and Nolan Hauser continues to provide valuable points. Yet the offense failed to score a touchdown against Syracuse. On today's Locked On Clemson, Morgan Thomas breaks down why winning games doesn't necessarily mean Clemson has turned a corner. We also take a hard look at Chad Morris. Should Clemson bring him back for another season? How does his offensive production compare to Brandon Streeter's final season? And what should Morris have to prove over the final three games? Finally, Clemson has a legitimate opportunity to finish 9-3. Georgia Tech, Duke, and South Carolina remain on the schedule, with some favorable timing potentially working in Clemson's favor. But here's the bigger question: If Clemson wins nine games with one of the ACC's least productive offenses, will Dabo Swinney recognize that changes are still needed? Winning is important. Fixing the problems that keep Clemson from competing at a championship level matters, too. Subscribe to Locked On Clemson for daily Clemson Tigers football analysis, news, and discussion.
