Tigers turn Tagovailoa over for halftime lead over Bama
SANTA CLARA, Calif — Clemson turned two Tua Tagovailoa interceptions into touchdowns as the second-ranked Tigers lead No. 1 Alabama, 31-16, at halftime.
Tagovailoa came into the game with just four interceptions, but A.J. Terrell picked off a pass on Alabama’s first possession and returned it 44 yards for a touchdown. Midway through the second quarter, Trayvon Mullen intercepted another pass in the end zone and returned it to the Clemson 44.
The Tigers turned the Mullen’s interception into points when Trevor Lawrence threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Travis Etienne.
