When Clemson lost to Alabama in the College Football Playoff Championship Game last January, Wayne Gallman initially was pretty mad.
But it did not take too long for the Clemson running back to get over it, and in fact he drew from a previous experience to pull him through.
When Gallman was a sophomore at Grayson High School in Loganville, Georgia, he along with Tigers’ backup quarterback Nick Schuessler advanced to the state semifinals. They were undefeated and were going against one of the powerhouses in the state of Georgia – the Colquitt County Packers.
Colquitt won the game and ended the Rams dream season in the Georgia Dome.
