CLEMSON – Deshaun Watson wears a throwback number and late Saturday night he got to wear a throwback helmet.
Clemson’s dynamic sophomore quarterback wears the familiar No. 4 jersey made famous by former Tiger standout Steve Fuller, and his standout performance in Saturday’s 34-17 Homecoming win over Boston College made him the winner of the O’Rourke-McFadden Trophy.
Watson finished the night 27-of-41 for 420 yards and three touchdowns, but also rushed 11 times for 32 yards. He said the game plan was to take what the defense gave them.
“Each game has its own different way it plays out,” Watson said.
