Question for All Clemson QBs 1966-70: 3-88, Hike!

OK, this has been gnawing at me for about 50 years – haha.
I was at CU 1966-70. Back in the day, you could (often?) walk out onto the practice field and watch them practice – basically right in the middle of the players, as I remember.
Of course, I used to love to watch the QB’s throwing and running plays.
HERE’s MY QUESTION...
“3-88, 3-88… Hike!”
...That QB bark I heard constantly. It’s never left my brain.
Hep’ me => WHAT PLAY DID THAT MEAN???
Hep’ me, QB’s and other OFF. Players. Don’t let me die before I know what “3-88” meant!!
------
I just Googled to this list of the QB’s for those years I was there:
1966 Jimmy Addison QB: 103 Cmp, 186 Att, 1491 Yds, 10 TD
1967 Jimmy Addison QB: 82 Cmp, 174 Att, 924 Yds, 5 TD
1968 Billy Ammons QB: 74 Cmp, 162 Att, 1006 Yds, 5 TD
1969 Tommy Kendrick QB: 107 Cmp, 227 Att, 1457 Yds, 10 TD
1970 Tommy Kendrick QB: 133 Cmp, 267 Att, 1407 Yds, 8 TD

I played HS QB mid to late 70s. I was supposed to start all counts with the defense formation, usually 5-4 or 6-2. Most of the time i just used 5-4. Have no idea what 3-88 meant. Remember Tommy Kenricks well. Special memory of watchinghim beat usc 17-7 in '71.
