CLEMSON – Denver has The Drive and The Fumble. Clemson will have The Throw.
Top-ranked Clemson defeated arch-rival 37-32 Saturday in Columbia to remain undefeated and in the hunt for a spot in the College Football Playoff. If the Tigers make it to the playoff, they might be able to look back at “The Throw” as one of the key plays in getting them there.
During the third quarter of Saturday’s game, the Gamecocks had just scored and trimmed Clemson’s advantage to just three at 28-25. Momentum was wearing garnet and black, and the Tigers needed a big play and a touchdown.
