Gut Check: Tigers survive double OT thriller at Wake
WINSTON-SALEM, NC – Nate Wiggins saved the best play of the day for last, knocking down Sam Hartman’s pass into the endzone, saving the day for a Clemson defense that was battered and bruised for four quarters and two overtimes Saturday. In the end, No. 5 Clemson survived and advanced with a thrilling 51-45, two-overtime thriller at Truist Field over No. 21 Wake Forest.
The Tigers had gone ahead 51-45 with the first drive of the second overtime but missed on the two-point conversion. The ball knocked down was Wake’s last chance at either tying the score or going ahead.
