DJ Uiagalelei and the Clemson offense have struggled all year long. That is continuing on Saturday afternoon against Pitt.
After getting off to a 7-0 start against the Panthers, things have gone horribly wrong for the Tigers.
Pitt now holds a 21-10 lead thanks to this awful pick-6 thrown by Uiagalelei to SirVocea Dennis:

After that drive, Uiagalelei was benched in favor of backup QB Taisun Phommachanh. The new Clemson QB then went 3-for-5 on his first drive to lead the Tigers to a field goal.
We’ll see if Uiagalelei gets back in the game eventually or if this ends up being Phommachanh’s show moving forward.
This is a huge game in the ACC standings.
