Former Tiger Finds the End Zone in CFP Semifinal Game
A former Clemson wide receiver found the end zone in Friday night’s College Football Playoff Semifinal matchup at the Peach Bowl.
E.J. Williams scored a touchdown for top-seeded Indiana in their 56-22 rout over No. 5 seed Oregon at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
Williams hauled in a 13-yard touchdown pass from Indiana quarterback and 2025 Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza with 8:52 remaining in the third quarter, giving the Hoosiers a 42-7 lead at the time. It was Williams’ lone catch of the contest.
Williams entered Friday’s game with 35 receptions for 425 yards and five touchdowns this season, his third at Indiana following three seasons at Clemson from 2020-2022.
