CLEMSON, S.C. — Trevor Lawrence threw three touchdowns passes and ran for another as No. 1 Clemson proved once again who's boss in the Atlantic Coast Conference with a 42-17 beatdown of seventh-ranked Miami.

Travis Etienne ran for 149 yards and two scores, including a 72-yard burst down the left sidelines to help the Tigers open 4-0 for a sixth straight season.
