VIDEO: Clemson RB Travis Etienne Explodes for 90-Yard TD Run
By Jerry Trotta
Is the rout on in Death Valley? After Trevor Lawrence opened the scoring on Thursday night for Clemson with a six-yard touchdown run early in the first quarter against Georgia Tech, Tigers tailback Travis Etienne joined the party in with a BANG nearly six minutes later by erupting for a 90-yard touchdown run. The score tied Clemson's school record for the longest TD run in program history.
Travis Etienne is GONE!

This TD had it all from a running back's perspective, folks: patience, broken tackles, and home run speed!
But that wasn't all the junior runner had to say in this one. Moments later, he broke the game firmly open with a 14-yard touchdown scamper.
Etienne making it look easy ?

Take a bow, young fella. Lawrence isn't the only Heisman candidate on this roster.
