CLEMSON – The home crowd at Florida St. Saturday night will be loud and raucous, but Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson isn’t worried about the noise, the music or the big stage. He knows that the players on the field win games, not the fans in the seats.
Third-ranked Clemson travels to No. 12 Florida St. Saturday, the place where Watson, then a freshman, burst onto the national scene as the 22nd-ranked Tigers fell short of beating the top-ranked Seminoles in overtime.
Watson took over for senior starter Cole Stoudt early in the contest, but his heroics weren’t enough as the Tigers failed to convert on 4th-and-short in overtime.
