Offensive line play is rarely the most glamorous storyline heading into a football season, and the words "functional depth" don't do much to spice up the conversation. But note the word Clemson coach Dabo Swinney used this summer when he admitted his squad didn't have enough depth along the offensive line in 2021. "It was a disaster," Swinney said. "I think we'll have more functional players, and I think that's a position that will perform well for us." Questions surround D.J. Uiagalelei and the Tigers' quarterback position entering the season, but the offensive line may hold the key to Clemson's offense finding more consistency in 2022.

The line cracked almost immediately in the opener versus an ultra-talented Georgia defense. Then it took weeks to find its footing amid a game of musical chairs on the interior. Matt Bockhorst didn't fit at center and then tore his ACL after a return to guard. Marcus Tate was more ready than his freshman counterparts to plug in at guard, but the converted tackle was prone to mental slips. The offense finally came along when Mason Trotter and Hunter Rayburn reinforced the guard and center spots, but their availability was always tenuous. Rayburn is now medically retired because of a neck issue, and Trotter will have to miss a chunk of the '22 season to an off-the-field, non-disciplinary issue. The questions that dogged Clemson throughout last season - the three spots between all-conference caliber tackles Jordan McFadden and Walker Parks - remain the same heading into another season. - Charleston Post Courier
