During the South Carolina-Clemson game, everyone is saying the same thing about Tua Tagovailoa
South Carolina QB Jake Bentley had a big first half against Clemson with a 19-for-29 performance for 302 yards and three touchdowns,
But all fans wanted to talk about was how Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa would perform against Clemson in a potential College Football Playoff matchup. Bentley threw an interception, but the Gamecocks were 5-for-8 on third down, and had two touchdowns that went for at least 67 yards.
Here’s a collection of tweets reacting to the first half, which Clemson led 28-21:
I take no pleasure in pointing out that Tua would/will absolutely scorch this Clemson secondary.

Any team with a defense will beat the brakes off of Clemson. Tua will throw for 500 #exposed

Clemson is really good. Tua would shred this secondary though.

So clemson fans think they can stop Tua with Jake Bentley throwing like this 🤔

If that half is any indication can you imagine what Tua and Alabama’s offense would do to Clemson. #thistweetmaynotagewell

You got one more week. 29 points better than LSU.
your name says it all…
29 points better than LSU (who was 20 points better than Georgia).
Clemson has faced two SEC quarterbacks this season, neither of which will ever be mistaken for a Heisman candidate. Both have absolutely shredded Clemson’s secondary. For the life of me I hope people take notice this time. Clemson has feasted on the worst ACC lineup in conference history, but their DB’s are awful.
As productive as my Gamecocks were they STILL left MANY points on the field and allowed way too many yards and POINTS! I’m not sure how many starters were out, but with Bama’s BACKUPS being as good or probably BETTER than OUR starters, I don’t see the taters getting those yards and points vs Bama, GA, or even ND! I also think Tua has just as lethal receivers as SC. The game would be over by halftime! A&M should have beaten the taters as well as Syracuse. I won’t go as far as saying we should have, but with a decent defense and bit more flexibility in our run game we COULD have! Bama vs CU would make the ’12 Orange Bowl vs WVU look like a nail biter!
