In his last game as a Clemson Tiger, Trayvon Mullen went out the best way possible.
The Clemson cornerback had perhaps his best game as a Tiger on the biggest stage possible. In the Tigers’ 44-16 win over Alabama on Jan. 7, Mullen return an interception 46 yards, forced a fumble on a sack and totaled six tackles overall.
His interception allowed Clemson to seize control of the game with a fourth touchdown, while his forced fumble stopped a Crimson Tide drive, which led to a field goal just before halftime.
For his efforts, Mullen was awarded as the game’s Most Valuable Defensive Player on a unit that shut out Alabama in the last 44 minutes of the game and held the Crimson Tide to just 219 total yards over the final three quarters.
