The Perfect Storm: Tigers down Irish 24-22

CLEMSON – Saturday night in Death Valley saw The Perfect Storm.

A never-say-die defense, an orange-clad crowd that rallied behind the defense time and time again in a driving rainstorm and a gutsy stop on a two-point conversion with seven seconds to play all helped lead No. 11 Clemson to a 24-22 victory over No. 6 Notre Dame in front of 82,415 soaked fans in Death Vallley.

Notre Dame got a touchown with seven seconds left on the clock to pull within 24-22, but quarterback Deshone Kizer was stopped on a quarterback keeper on the two-point conversion.
