CHARLOTTE – Nate Wiggins has been waiting for his first interception all season, and he saved the best for last.

The sophomore cornerback had the best performance of his young career Saturday night in Clemson's 39-10 victory over North Carolina in the ACC Championship Game at Bank of America Stadium.

Not only did Wiggins personally keep the Tar Heels from scoring 17 points – by virtue of two pass breakups in the endzone and a blocked field goal – but he also had a 98-yard interception returned for a touchdown, the longest play in ACC Championship Game history.
