RECORD-SETTING FIVE SEASONS (2011-15)

TIGERS LOOKING FOR FOURTH STRAIGHT BOWL WIN

Clemson is seeking its fourth straight bowl victory, something the program has not done since it won five in a row between 1986-90. Clemson defeated LSU 25-24 in the 2012 Chick-fil-A Bowl and downed Ohio State at the 2014 FedX Orange Bowl. Last year, Clemson defeated Oklahoma in the Russell Athletic Bowl. A victory in the Orange Bowl will give this senior class four bowl bowl victories, something that has not been done since the senior class of 1990 had a 4-0 mark in post season. The 1989 senior class was also 4-0. Clemson is one of five schools with a chance to win a fourth straight bowl game in four consecutive years. The list includes Clemson, Michigan State, Oregon, Texas A&M and Utah State.

VETERANS GOING FOR 4TH STRAIGHT BOWL WIN OVER RANKED TEAM Clemson is looking for its fourth straight bowl win. The current Clemson roster has 47 players on it who have played in a bowl game. Four (D.J. Reader, Eric Mac Lain, Charone Peake and Ryan Norton) have played in three bowl games, all wins over top 25 teams. Peake actually played in the 2012 Orange Bowl against West Virginia, the only active player who played in that game. He missed the 2014 Orange Bowl against Ohio State due to injury, but played against LSU and Oklahoma in 2012 and 2014, respectively. Sixteen different players have played in two bowl games and 27 have played in just one. Eleven different active players have started in a bowl game, including two players, Ryan Norton and Jayron Kearse, who have started two.

MAC LAIN IS WINNINGEST CLEMSON PLAYER

Clemson’s 2015 senior group became the winningest class in school history with the 33-13 win over Wake Forest in the final home game of the year. It was the 43rd win for that class in 50 games. Only one player has participated in all 52 games, Eric Mac Lain. He has started all 13 games at offensive guard this year and has become one of the leaders of the team. One of the most respected student leaders on campus, Mac Lain introduced Vice President Joe Bidin at a function on Clemson’s campus on November 10. With Mac Lain the only player to participate in every game over the last four years, he now has the title of winningest player in Clemson history. His now 45 victories rank first. Prior to this year, Adam Humphries, Robert Smith and Deshawn Williams had played in 42 victories.

SENIORS SET RECORD FOR OVERALL WINS Here are some of the accomplishments for this 2015 senior class: • Has a 45-7 overall record, the school record for most wins in a four-year period. • In terms of winning percentage, this class has an .865 mark, best in school history. Even with a loss in the Orange Bowl, this class has clinched the record for winning percentage. The second best mark is a .844 mark by the seniors of 1984, a group that included William Perry. They finished 37-6-2. • The group already has the school record for conference wins with 28. This group is an incredible 28-4 vs. and the .875 winning percentage in league play is the best since the 1941 class was 16-1-1 in Southern Conference play, a .917 winning percentage. It is a record for the Tigers in ACC play. • This group finished 26-2 at home over the last four years and tied for the most wins by a senior class. Last year’s seniors were also 26-2. The 26-2 record ties the mark for the best winning percentage by a class in Memorial Stadium, a facility that dates to 1942. Clemson’s seniors of 1930 are the only class better from a percentage standpoint with a 13-0-1 record for a .964 percentage. • In terms of national rankings, this group has been ranked in 62 of 65 polls so far. That includes a streak of 19 in a row that is active. This poll leading into the bowl season marked the 32nd time this class was ranked in the top 10, and of course this year tied the record for the highest national ranking with a No. 1 that first appeared with the release of the first College Football Playoff Poll on November 3. The Tigers are ranked No. 1 for the fifth straight week by AP, four straight by USA Today. • The class has already been a part of some of the biggest wins in Clemson history. The Tigers already have wins over top 10 teams from LSU, Ohio State, Georgia, Notre Dame and North Carolina. Clemson faces another top 10 team in No. 4 Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl. Perhaps the most impressive accomplishment by the class is beating eight of the top 17 teams in college football history in terms of winning percentage. The list includes Notre Dame (#1), Ohio State (#4), Oklahoma (#5), Florida State (#11), LSU (#13), Georgia (#14), Miami (#15), and Auburn (#17).

CLEMSON HAS FIVE STRAIGHT YEARS OF AT LEAST 10 WINS The victory at Syracuse gave Clemson a 10-0 record for 2015 and assured Clemson of a school record fifth straight season of at least 10 wins. Clemson became just the 15th different school in college football history (current FBS schools) to have five consecutive seasons of at least 10 wins. Alabama has done it twice. Clemson is now 13-0 after the win over North Carolina Heading into this season Clemson, Alabama, Oregon and Northern Illinois were the only schools with an active streak of at least four 10-win seasons. Alabama and Oregon had seven consecutive years entering this year and Northern Illinois five. Northern Illinois can not win 10 games this year. Alabama already has 11 and Oregon needs a bowl win to get 10. It is interesting to note Brent Venables is a common denominator for two program eras on this list. He was a defensive coach at Oklahoma from 2000-04 when the Sooners had a five year streak and he has been part of four of the five years in Clemson’s current streak of 10-win seasons.

RECORD-SETTING FIVE SEASONS (2011-15)

CLEMSON RANKED HIGH IN GRADUATION SUCCESS RATE

Clemson’s football program recorded an all-time best 84 percent for its Graduate Success Rate score released by the NCAA on Wednesday, November 4. Dabo Swinney’s program has made an improvement in its GSR each of the last five years. Clemson ranks fourth among Power Five Conference public institutions and is tied for 11th among all Power Five schools. The program was tied for sixth in GSR Score among the top 25 teams in the nation announced November 3 by the College Football Playoff Committee. “This is the number-one ranking when it comes to our program,” said Dabo Swinney. “This is our mission, to help these young men be successful in life after they leave here. That means doing everything we can to help them in their education. “I am passionate about this. I keep a list of former players who still have to get their degree and I write them a letter each year asking them what they have left. I stay after them. “The most important accomplishment for our program since I have been head coach is the fact that 114 of our 120 seniors have earned their degree from Clemson. Five of the six are in the NFL and one is in school currently.”

TIGERS SET HOME WINNING STREAK RECORD Clemson established the school record for consecutive home wins with the 34-17 win over Boston College on October 17, its 14th straight victory. Clemson’s last home loss was against Florida State on October 19, 2013. Clemson extended its home streak to 15 in a row with the win over Florida State. The streak was at 16 after a home finale win over Wake Forest. Only Florida State has a longer home winning streak than Clemson at the moment. The Seminoles have won 21 in a row. Clemson had won 13 in a row from the start of the 2011 season and into the first six home games of 2012 before South Carolina broke the streak. Those are the longest winning streaks in Memorial Stadium. The Tigers also won 13 in a row at Riggs field from 1927-30. The Tigers have been outstanding at home under Dabo Swinney. He has a 46-6 home record for his Clemson career. Clemson set the record in his 50th career home game. He is 27-3 in home ACC games, the third best home record for an ACC coach in history.

37 STRAIGHT OVER UNRANKED FOES Clemson has won 37 consecutive games against unranked opponents (either poll), the longest streak of its kind in school history. The streak is 39 in a row over teams not ranked by Associated Press. All 37 of the wins have been by at least three points, the longest active streak in the nation. Alabama has the longest winning streak in the nation in terms of consecutive wins over unranked opponents regardless of the scoring margin with 60. Since Clemson’s last loss as a ranked team to an unranked team at NC State in 2011, 54 different schools have lost 126 times as a top 25 team in the AP poll to an unranked team. The South Carolina game was Clemson’s last game against an unranked team, so this streak will carry into next year. CONSECUTIVE WINS OVER UNRANKED OPPONENTS (EITHER POLL) Rk School Wins Last Loss vs. Unranked Team 1. Alabama 60 2007 vs. UL-Monroe, 21-14 2. Clemson 37 2011 at NC State, 37-13

CLEMSON WINNING CLOSE GAMES

When Clemson defeated South Carolina 37-32 in the final regular season game it gave Clemson an 11-1 record in games decide by seven points or less since the beginning of the 2011 season. That includes a 3-0 record this year. Notre Dame was ranked sixth in the AP entering the game on October 3, and this was the sixth win over a top 25 team during this stretch. Clemson’s only loss in a game decided by seven points or less since 2011 came in overtime last year at Florida State, a 23-17 win for the Seminoles, who were ranked number one in the nation at the time.

CLEMSON SUCCESSFUL VS. WINNINGEST PROGRAMS

Clemson defeated the winningest team in college football history on Oct. 3 when it defeated Notre Dame, 24-22 in Memorial Stadium. The Tigers then downed No. 15 on the list, Miami (FL) by a 58-0 count on October 24. It was the worst margin of defeat in Miami history (90 years). Facing teams among the best in the history of college football is nothing new to Clemson and head coach Dabo Swinney. Over the last five years (2011-15), Clemson has beaten nine different teams on the list a total of 12 times. The Tigers have a 12-4 overall record against the top 20 winningest programs during this time. Three of the victories have taken place in the last three bowl games. Clemson defeated #13 LSU in the 2012 Chick-fil-A Bowl, downed #4 Ohio State at the 2014 Orange Bowl, then defeated #5 Oklahoma at the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl. Since 2011 Clemson has also defeated top 20 all-time programs Florida State, Georgia, Auburn, Virginia Tech and Miami. Clemson has beaten top 20 programs Notre Dame, Miami (FL) and Florida State this year. Oklahoma is fifth on the list, so Clemson will have another chance in the Orange Bowl.

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

VERSUS

PERSONNEL OVERVIEW

Clemson has had its finest season since 1981 and in some ways its best season in history. The Tigers are the No. 1 team in the nation in the two traditional polls (AP and USA Today) and in each of the six College Football Playoff Polls. Clemson’s 13-0 record is already a school standard for wins in a season and the streak of six straight weeks ranked No. 1 in at least one poll is also a school best. Now all Clemson has to do to match the greatest accomplishment in school history is win the National Championship. That is something the 1981 team did accomplishment when it posted a 12-0 mark and defeated then Big Eight member and fourth-ranked Nebraska to win the National Championship. Clemson faces another Big Eight (now 12 with 10 teams) school in Oklahoma, a squad that is also ranked fourth. But, a victory will not give Clemson the national title, just a bid to the National Championship game. Clemson’s 1981 team had a perfect season, the only one in college football that year, thanks to a strong defense that ranked second in the nation in scoring defense and seventh in total defense. This year’s Clemson team is also ranked seventh in total defense entering the bowl season, but the Tigers have a more prolific offense than that 1981 squad did. The 2015 Tigers have been in the top 25 in the nation in important areas of the game on both sides of the ball and it is a big reason the College Football Playoff Committee has had the Tigers No. 1 in every poll this year, the first team to do that in the two-year format. Clemson is seventh in the nation total defense (295.7 yards per game) and 12th in total offense with 510.6 yards per game. Clemson is 15th in scoring offense (38.5) and 18th in scoring defense (20.2). Clemson is also ranked in the top 25 in rushing and passing, offense and defense. No Clemson team has finished a season in the top 25 of all eight of those important stats. Clemson has a 13-0 record against a schedule that has included seven teams that have posted a winning record, not just bowl eligibility. Four of the wins have come over teams with at least 10 wins, a Clemson record, and something no other team in the nation has done. In fact, no one has beaten more than two teams with 10 wins this year. It has also led to a 16-game winning streak over two years, the longest winning streak in Clemson history and the longest active winning streak in the nation by six wins. That streak included a perfect 9-0 against ACC foes, a record that was culminated with a 45-37 win over an eighth-ranked North Carolina team in the ACC title game in Charlotte. While Clemson has a perfect record, the Tigers have not played perfect. Six times Clemson has lost the turnover margin by exactly two, yet won the games, a first in Clemson history. The Tigers have also missed five extra points. But, the Tigers have been perfect when it comes to wins and losses by an average of 18 points per game. The 13-0 record has been remarkable when you consider there are 39 true or red-shirt freshman on the Clemson roster, including 28 who have played in games. Clemson is the fifth youngest team in the nation based on freshman participation. A win over Oklahoma would give Clemson a 14th victory, something only seven schools have accomplished in the history of college football.

OFFENSE Clemson has one of the most balanced attacks in the nation with an average of 222 yards per game on the ground and 288.5 yards a game through the air. In 10 of the 13 games Clemson has gained at least 500 yards total offense, including a streak of nine in a row heading into the bowl season. Clemson never had a streak of more than four games in a row with 500 yards prior to this season.

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

The balance is further showed by the fact the Tigers have scored 30 touchdowns rushing and 30 passing. Seven times this year Clemson has had at least 200 yards rushing and 200 yards passing in the same game. Clemson has never lost a game in its history when gaining at least 200 of each in a game. The leader of the Clemson offense is sophomore quarterback Deshaun Watson, who was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy and a first-team All-American. The ACC Player of the Year has completed 287 of 413 passes for 3,512 yards and 30 touchdowns. He added 887 yards on the ground and scored 11 times. His 41 total touchdowns ranked second in the nation among Power Five conference schools. His 338.4 yards of total offense per game rank ninth in the nation. He needs just 12 yards in the bowl game to break Tajh Boyd’s since season record of 4,410. Watson is the only player in the nation with at least 800 yards rushing and 3,500 passing and if he gets 113 yards rushing in the bowl game he will become just the third player in FBS history to post a 1,000 yards rushing and 3500 passing. Watson has a 17-1 career record as Clemson’s starter, including 16-0 when he starts and finishes a game in a healthy state. Watson is second on the Clemson team in rushing with his 887 yards. The top rusher is first-team AllACC back Wayne Gallman. The red-shirt sophomore has 1332 yards on the ground and needs just 14 yards in the bowl game to break Raymond Priester’s single season mark of 1345 set in 1996. Gallman has already broken Priester’s record for 100-yard rushing games in a season with eight. The native of Logansville, Ga. finished the season strong for the second year in a row. He had 19-102 in the win over South Carolina, then had 28-187 and a touchdown in the ACC Championship game against North Carolina. His 187 was the second most in ACC Championship game history, trailing only the 233 by C.J. Spiller vs. Georgia Tech in 2009. He had 165 of those yards in the second half, a championship game record. Gallman has also shown his ability to catch the ball recently. He had a career high 68 receiving yards against the Tar Heels, giving him 255 all-purpose yards for the game, the fifth highest total in Clemson history. Clemson’s receiving corps is led by first-team AllACC sophomore Artavis Scott. He had 84 receptions for 805 yards and five scores this year. He finished strong with 7-96 in the ACC Championship game against North Carolina. The native of Clearwater, Fla. already has 160 receptions in just two years to rank seventh in school history. Senior Charone Peake has had a strong senior year and has 50 receptions for 563 yards and five scores. He has started all 13 games after fighting through injury his first four years. The only active Tiger player to play in the 2011 Orange Bowl, Peake has had at least one catch in 12 of the 13 games, including a season high 7-120 at Syracuse. Freshman Deon Cain has come off the bench to catch 34 passes for 572 yards and five scores as well. He has been a clutch big play performer in the second half of the year and had a streak of five consecutive games with a touchdown catch, a record for a Clemson freshman that had been held by Sammy Watkins. He had a season best 5-96 receiving against Georgia Tech and South Carolina. Freshman Ray-Ray McCloud missed three games due to injury, but still had 26 catches for 238 yards. Original walkon Hunter Renfrow ended up starting eight games and had 22-345 receiving for two touchdowns. Junior Germone Hopper, who had a touchdown catch against Oklahoma last year, is a sixth receiver with at least 20 catches. Tight end Jordan Leggett was a finalist for the John Mackey Award in 2015 and was a second-team AllAmerican. The junior had 34 catches for 442 yards and a team best seven touchdown receptions. Like

Cain, he had also had a streak of five straight games with a touchdown catch. That broke a Clemson record for a tight end, a standard that had held since 1984. Clemson’s offensive line has been one of the strengths and one of the surprises of the Tigers season. When practice started in August, the Tigers had just one returning starter, center Ryan Norton. But Norton suffered a knee injury in the second game and has played in just five games for 96 snaps so far this season. That meant the Tigers had to replace all five starters from the 2014 team. Over the last 30 years in seasons Clemson has had to replace four or five starters in the offensive line the Tigers finished 40-34, a .540 winning percentage. But, this year’s line under coach Robbie Caldwell paid no attention to that stat and was a big reason Clemson finished 13-0, ranked 12th in total offense, and finished 14th in the nation in fewest sacks allowed. Clemson has not allowed a sack in each of the last four games entering the postseason. All five starters on Clemson’s offensive line made an All-ACC team according to the ACC Media and the Coaches association, a first in Clemson history. The leader of the offensive line and perhaps the entire team has been graduate student Eric Mac Lain. A four star tight end when he came to Clemson, Mac Lain had played in every game the past three years on offense, but had started just three games. This year he was a mainstay at offensive guard and made first-team All-ACC by the coaches and the media. The most surprising story of the line might have been center Jay Guillermo. The junior stepped away from football in the second semester, but returned in the summer and took over when Norton was injured. All Guillermo did was earn ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week honors three times, tying the school record for offensive line selections. He was named second-team All-ACC center by both the media and the coaches. Freshman Mitch Hyatt started every game at left tackle as a true freshman. He was the first true freshman to start the first game of the year since 1944 and started all 13 games, the first true freshman in Clemson history to do that as a lineman. He played 885 plays for the season and was named a first-team Freshman AllAmerica team by USA Today. Hyatt was named thirdteam All-ACC by the coaches and the media and the ACC Rookie of the Year by ESPN.com. Offensive tackle Joe Gore and guard Tyrone Crowder were both third-team All-ACC performers and started the majority of the games. Gore is a graduate who started all but one game and had a team best four knockdown blocks in the win over Florida State. He had 27 knockdowns for the season. Crowder started the first nine games before an injury slowed him down. But, he came back to play 54 snaps and graded 91 percent in the win over South Carolina to close the regular season. Maverick Morris has done an outstanding job replacing Crowder late in the season and he will see plenty of action in the bowl game. Norton is a veteran who has played 43 games (26 starts) at center. But he will be healthy for the Orange Bowl as well. He has started Clemson bowl wins over Oklahoma and Ohio State the last two years.

DEFENSE Clemson’s defense featured three All-Americans, including consensus first team defensive end Shaq Lawson. The Clemson point prevention unit had to replace eight starters from the unit that led the nation in total defense a year ago. It was the most lost starters by Clemson on the defensive side of the ball since the 1979 team had to replace eight starters off the 1978 team that finished sixth in the nation. All this year’s team did was finish seventh in the nation in total defense, fifth in tackles for loss, fifth in pass defense, 12th in sacks and 18th in scoring defense. The most impressive defensive data point was a

PERSONNEL OVERVIEW

No. 1 national ranking in pass completion percentage defense. The Tigers have allowed opponents to complete passes just 46.1 percent of the time, the best by any FBS team since at least 2007. The leader of the defensive unit has been Lawson, who was the second team defensive end behind AllAmerican Vic Beasley in 2013 and 2014. Given the starting position this year, Lawson had exceeded Beasley’s numbers as he had 22.5 tackles for loss and 78 tackles. He added 9.5 sacks and had 15 quarterback pressures that disrupted opposing offenses all year. Lawson, who grew up just five miles from the Clemson campus, was a finalist for the Lombardi Award, the Hendricks and the Nagurski. He was the leading vote getter on the All-ACC defense. Lawson and former All-American Anthony Simmons are the only defensive players in Clemson history to record at least 10 tackles for loss as a freshman, sophomore and Junior. Kevin Dodd is flanked at the other side of the defensive line and has had a most productive junior year. He ranks second on the Clemson team and in the top 10 in the ACC in sacks with 8.5, and in tackles for loss with 15. He has 74 tackles for the season, including 58 first hits, the same total Lawson has accumulated. Freshman Austin Bryant is a true freshman with 25 tackles in 11 games. The defensive tackles are led by an impressive group of non-seniors. Carlos Watkins was a first team All-ACC defensive tackle who had 61 stops, including six tackles for loss. He might have made the play of the year when he took on two Notre Dame offensive linemen and still made the tackle on Irish Quarterback Deshone Kiser to stop a two-point play with seven seconds left. Had Notre Dame scored the game would have gone into overtime. Watkins also scored a touchdown on an interception return. D.J. Reader is the only senior on the starting front four. He has played seven games, four as a starter, and has 29 tackles as an effective run stopper. Sophomore Scott Pagano has made 10 starts and played in all 13 games as a sophomore and has 43 tackles. Freshman Christian Wilkins actually leads all defensive tackles in tackles with 72 even though he has started just one game. His tackle total is a Clemson record for a non-starting freshman defensive lineman and he was named a first-team freshman All-American by Sporting News. He has averaged a tackle every 5.3 snaps. Rod Byers is a senior who has come off the bench in every game to record 38 tackles. Clemson’s top two tacklers are linebackers B.J. Goodson and Ben Boulware. Goodson has 127 tackles, including 15 tackles for loss and 5.5 sacks. A reserve his first three years, Goodson has played 733 snaps and started all 13 games and has led the Tigers in tackles five times. He had two takeaways in the fourth quarter against Notre Dame, something that had not been done by a Clemson defender in a victory by seven points or less since Clemson’s win at Notre Dame in 1979 (Terry Kinard). Boulware was a first-team All-ACC performer according to the ACC coaches and had 121 tackles, including a team best 20 quarterback pressures. Boulware had a pick-six in the first quarter of the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl against Oklahoma and is a fierce hitter. Travis Blanks has started all 13 games at the third linebacker position and has 38 tackles, including three tackles for loss. Dorian O’Daniel is a reliable junior who has 27 tackles off the bench. The Clemson secondary is led by a pair of All-Americans. Safety Jayron Kearse was named a first-team AllAmerican by ESPN.com and a second-team choice by the Associated Press. The 6'5" defender accumulated 74 tackles, including 6.5 for loss. He has the ability to guard tall opposing wide receivers. T.J. Green was third on the team in tackles from his safety position with 101 stops, including five tackles for loss and even recorded a sack. He was a wide receiver the last time Clemson

played in the Orange Bowl against Ohio State in the 2013 season. Cornerback MacKensie Alexander is a third-team AP All-American cornerback. His raw stats won’t jump off the page as he has 25 tackles and five pass break ups with no interceptions. But he has allowed just 11 completions and no touchdowns by the receivers he has been assigned to guard in 638 defensive snaps. He has not allowed a touchdown reception in his last 21 games. Opposing offensive coordinators have avoided his area of the field all year. Cordrea Tankersley ranks 17th in the nation in interceptions with five and he has 14 total passes defended to go with 49 tackles in starting all 13 games. He was another defender who had to step up for the Tigers in the secondary. He replaced All-ACC defender Garry Peters with an even better season. Adrian Baker is a capable cornerback who has seen a lot of action as a nickel back and he has a pair of interceptions, both red zone thefts that were momentum changers. Ryan Carter is another strong cornerback who has 17 tackles.

SPECIAL TEAMS

18 TIGERS RECEIVE ACC HONORS

VERSUS

A record 18 Clemson players were named to one of three All-ACC teams announced by the Atlantic Coast Sports Media Association (ACSMA). Sophomore quarterback Deshaun Watson was joined on the first team by offensive players Eric Mac Lain and Artavis Scott, as well as defensive players Mackensie Alexander, Shaq Lawson and Carlos Watkins. The ACC Coaches also selected a team and had nine Clemson players on the first team. The coaches first team included Watson, Mac Lain, Scott, Alexander, Lawson, Wayne Gallman, Jordan Leggett, Ben Boulware and Jayron Kearse. Clemson’s entire starting offensive line was honored for the first time ever, as Jay Guillermo was a second-team choice, while Tyrone Crowder, Joe Gore and Mitch Hyatt were all third-team selections. Other All-ACC selections on offense were running back Wayne Gallman and tight end Jordan Leggett, who were named to the second team. Placekicker Greg Huegel also got a second-team nod. Defensively, four Tigers were named to the second and third teams. Starting linebackers Ben Boulware and B.J. Goodson were both second-team honorees, along with safety Jayron Kearse. Starting cornerback Cordrea Tankersley was a third-team selection. Defensive end Kevin Dodd was an honorable mention selection and missed making the third team by just one second place vote.

Kicker Greg Huegel made 22-25 field goals this year, including a perfect 17-17 on attempts in ACC games, best in the nation in conference games. He had a streak of 16 straight made field goals, the second longest streak in Clemson history. The freshman who joined the team in August was named a second-team All-American by Si.com, the first player in Clemson history to earn All-America honors in a semester he was not on scholarship. Ammon Lakip is a senior who has handled Clemson kickoffs and has 28 touchbacks in 73 kickoffs. He was the starter in 2014. Andy Teasdall has averaged 39 gross yards per punt, but has a solid 37.5 net figure on his 58 attempts. He has 19 punts inside the 20 without a touchback and has four punts of at least 50 yards. Clemson has just 36 punt return yards all year and averages 22 yards per kickoff return. The top special teams tackler is linebacker Dorian O’Daniel, who has 15 stops, more than double any other teammate.

CLEMSON IS THIRD ACC TEAM WITH 13 WINS

BOWL NOTES

SEPTEMBER 30, 1972 AT NORMAN, OKLAHOMA

When Clemson defeated North Carolina on December 5 to win the ACC Championship, it gave the Tigers a 13-0 record, just the third ACC team to win at least 13 games in a season. The victory total is a Clemson record. The only team in ACC history to win more games was just two years ago when Florida State finished 14-0 to win the National Championship. Clemson’s 1981 National Championship team was the first ACC team to win 12 games in a season. Florida State did it five times between 1993 and 2014. The Seminoles actually had a streak of three seasons with at least 12 wins from 2012-14. Pittsburgh and Miami have had 12-win seasons previously, but they were not in the ACC at the time.

VERSUS

OKLAHOMA 52, CLEMSON 3 • An Oklahoma team filled with many All-Americans and future College Football Hall of Famers defeated Clemson 52-3 on a 62-degree day in Norman, Okla. in 1972. Oklahoma was ranked second in the nation entering the game and finished the season with a number-two final ranking behind National Champion Southern California. • Oklahoma rushed for 475 yards on 76 carries, still the second most rushing yards in history against the Tigers. The Oklahoma offense featured Greg Pruitt and Joe Washington, while the Oklahoma defense featured the Selmon Brothers, and All-America linebacker Rod Shoate, one of just two three-time All-Americans in Oklahoma history. • Oklahoma had 515 yards of total offense, while Clemson had just 185, including just 25 yards passing. Clemson’s defense had to make a lot of tackles with so many running plays and four different players tied for the team lead with 12 apiece. Those players were Ben Anderson, Willie Anderson, John Rhodes and Jimmy Williamson.

JAN. 2, 1989 AT ORLANDO, FLORIDA

CLEMSON 13, OKLAHOMA 6 FLORIDA CITRUS BOWL Clemson and Oklahoma met in the Florida Citrus Bowl on Jan. 2, 1989. Clemson won the game 13-6, the first victory for an ACC team over the Sooners. Oklahoma had been 12-0 against ACC teams entering that game.

CLEMSON SCHEDULE ACCOMPLISHMENTS • Clemson was the only team in the nation to beat four teams that have 10 wins entering the bowl season. Clemson downed 10-win teams Notre Dame, Florida State, Appalachian State and North Carolina. No other team had more than two wins over 10-win teams. It marked the first time in school history Clemson defeated four 10-win teams in the same year. • Clemson had seven wins over FBS teams with winning records. Only Alabama (10) and Michigan State (8) had more. • Clemson was the only team in the nation to record three wins over teams in the top 10 of the final College Football Playoff Poll. Clemson defeated No. 8 Notre Dame, No. 9 Florida State and No. 10 North Carolina.

GOING FOR 14 WINS Clemson has a 13-0 record entering the Orange Bowl against Oklahoma. There have been just seven teams in FBS history to win 14 games in a season. Five of them won the National Championship, including Ohio State last year. No team has ever gone 15-0. Clemson can join the impressive group below with a victory over Oklahoma. FBS TEAMS WITH 14 WINS Year School W-L 1996 BYU 14-1 2002 *Ohio State 14-0 2009 *Alabama 14-0 Boise State 14-0 2010 *Auburn 14-0 2013 *Florida State 14-0 2014 *Ohio State 14-1 *Denotes won National Championship

STREAKS • Clemson has won 16 straight games over two years, the longest active streak in the nation by six. It is also the longest winning streak in Clemson history. Alabama is second with a 10-gamer, San Diego State has 9, Arkansas State is next with 8 and Oklahoma is fifth with 7 in a row. • As far as home winning streaks, Clemson has a 16-gamer, which is second best among active FBS schools. Florida State leads the way at 21 in a row. After Clemson comes TCU with 13, Western Kentucky with 10 and Houston with 9. • As far as games against conference foes, Clemson has won nine in a row, all this year. Western Kentucky has the longest active streak at 12 in a row, followed by San Diego State at 11. Clemson and Arkansas State are next with nine and Alabama is fifth with eight. Oklahoma is sixth with seven. • In terms of road games, Oklahoma and Alabama have the longest active streak with seven in a row. Clemson and Appalachian State are tied for third with five in a row.

CLEMSON VS. OKLAHOMA SERIES • Clemson and Oklahoma have played four times previously and the two teams have split the games. Oklahoma won the first two games and Clemson has won the last two, both in bowl games. • Oklahoma is 2-0 in the series at Norman, Okla., and the Tigers won the two meeting at a neutral site, the Jan. 2, 1989 (end of 1988 season) Citrus Bowl, and last year’s Russell Athletic Bowl. • Oklahoma has never been to Clemson for a football game. • Both of Clemson’s victories have come in the same facility, the Citrus Bowl in Orlando. The games were played 26 years apart. • A common denominator for Clemson in all four games with Oklahoma has been its defense, especially in terms of pass defense. The Sooners have thrown for just 301 yards in the four games combined. They had 20 yards passing in their victory in 1963, 40 in the 1972 game, 138 in the 1989 Citrus Bowl and just 103 in the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl. • This will be the first time Clemson has played the same team in bowl games in consecutive years since 1950-51 when Clemson met Miami in the Orange Bowl, then the Gator Bowl.

SEPT. 21, 1963 AT NORMAN, OKLAHOMA OKLAHOMA 31, CLEMSON 14 • Oklahoma won the first meeting with Clemson on September 21, 1963 in the season opener at Owen Field in Norman, Okla. by a 31-14 score. The Sooners entered the contest ranked fourth in the AP poll and finished the year with an 8-2 record and a number-10 final ranking. • Clemson took a 14-0 lead on a warm day that saw the thermometer reach 89 degrees. The Tigers scored on a 14-yard pass from Jim Parker to Lou Fogle and a three-yard run by Hal Davis. But, Oklahoma scored the last 31 points of the game. A key play was a 49-yard touchdown run by Lance Rentzel, who went on to play many years with the Dallas Cowboys. • Both coaches in this game are in the College Football Hall of Fame. Bud Wilkinson was the coach for Oklahoma and Frank Howard the coach for Clemson. Wilkinson retired from college coaching at the end of the 1963 season. Howard coached at Clemson through the 1969 season.

• Clemson finished in the top 10 of the AP poll for the first time since 1982 with the victory. Clemson was #8 by UPI, #9 by AP and #10 by USA Today. • It was the final game at Oklahoma for Head Coach Barry Switzer, who was the winningest active coach in the country in terms of winning percentage entering the game. He finished with a 15729-4 (.837) record and the 29th loss came against Clemson. Ironically, Clemson Coach Danny Ford ended his career with the Tigers the next year and he also had 29 losses. Switzer is now in the College Football Hall of Fame. Ford is on the current ballot. • Oklahoma ran the Wishbone offense at the time and it was the first time Ford had faced a Wishbone team in his head coaching career. Clemson held Oklahoma to 116 yards rushing in the contest and zero touchdowns. It was the fewest yards rushing for Oklahoma in a bowl game since 1965. • Clemson scored the only touchdown of the game on a four-yard run by Terry Allen with 10:28 left in the game. Allen finished with 53 yards rushing and 47 receiving for an even 100 yards from scrimmage. He is now a student assistant coach at Clemson as he has returned to Clemson after a long NFL career to finish his studies. • Oklahoma drove from its own 20 to the Clemson 14 in the final three minutes, but Jamielle Holieway’s pass in the endzone was batted away by freshman Dexter Davis on the last play of the game and Clemson had the victory. • The defensive MVP was Jesse Hatcher, who had nine tackles, an 18-yard sack, and two passes broken up. Freshman Ed McDaniel was Clemson’s top tackler with 14 stops. • Rodney Williams, currently the color commentator on the Clemson radio network, was Clemson’s starting quarterback and it was his final game for the Tigers, his 32nd career victory, still tied for the most in Clemson history. • One of the Clemson players who had a big impact on the game was Donnell Woolford. The firstteam All-America cornerback was playing his last game for Clemson and he was moved to a roverback position for this game by defensive coach Bill Oliver. Oliver had Woolford roam the field to help in defending Oklahoma’s vaunted rushing attack. He had five tackles and two passes broken up.

DECEMBER 29, 2014 AT ORLANDO, FLA. CLEMSON 40, OKLAHOMA 6 2014 RUSSELL ATHLETIC BOWL Clemson tied a school record for the largest margin of victory over a top 25 team in a 40-6 win over Oklahoma in the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl in Orlando, Fla. The 34-point margin over the No. 24 (USA Today) Sooners tied the mark that had been set in 1950 when Clemson won at 17th ranked Missouri, 34-0. Cole Stoudt played the game of his life in his final appearance for the Tigers as the Clemson graduate completed 26-36 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns. He was named the game’s MVP. It was his career high in terms of completions and yardage as he led Clemson to a 17-0 lead at the quarter, 27-0 at halftime and 40-0 after three periods. Clemson had a pair of 100-yard receivers as Mike Williams had 9-112 and a touchdown and Artavis Scott had 8-114 and a score. Wayne Gallman was the top rusher with 55 yards in 19 attempts. It marked the first time Clemson had a pair of 100-yard receivers in a bowl game. Scott scored Clemson’s first touchdown on the Tigers first offensive play as he took a flip pass from Stoudt and ran 65 yards for a score just 1:34 into the game. That was quite a first play call for co-offensive coordinators Tony Elliott and Jeff Scott, who were coaching their first game together in that role in running the Clemson offense. Chad Morris had left to become the head coach at SMU after the regular season win over South Carolina. After Ammon Lakip made a 34-yard field, Ben Boulware returned an interception 47 yards for a score. It was the first of two takeaways for Boulware, as he also recovered a fumble in the second half. It was the first pick-six by a Clemson player in a bowl game in 24 years. Boulware started the first half for first-round draft choice Stephone Anthony, who was suspended due to a second half targeting foul in the South Carolina game. Germone Hopper caught a third touchdown pass from Stoudt with 1:42 left in the third to give Clemson a 40-0 lead. Clemson held Oklahoma to 275 yards total offense, including just 103 passing. Grady Jarrett, playing in his final game, had a career high 3.5 tackles for loss and Vic Beasley had three stops for loss as well in his final game. Top rusher Samaje Perine had 134 yards rushing in 23 attempts for Oklahoma, but many came on the final drive of the game.

VENABLES COACHED AT OKLAHOMA Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables coached at Oklahoma, Clemson’s Capital One Orange Bowl opponent, for 13 years (1999-2011). In those 13 years, the Sooners had 13 winning seasons, went to 13 bowl games and had 10 seasons with at least 10 wins. Oklahoma went to what would be consider nine “Major” bowls, including the BCS Championship game in 2000, which Oklahoma won. Oklahoma had a 129-34 record during the 13 years Venables was in Norman, a .791 winning percentage.

BOWL NOTES

Oklahoma had six seasons with at least 12 wins over his 13 years. He was a Broyles Award finalist in 2006. Oklahoma led the nation in total defense in 2003 and led Clemson to the same ranking in 2014. Venables was the co-defensive coordinator from 1999-2003 and assistant head coach and defensive coordinator from 2004-2011. Since Venables came to Clemson in 2012, the Tigers are 45-7 with four consecutive bowl bids, including wins over LSU, Ohio State and Oklahoma. Clemson is the only team in the country with bowl wins over top 25 teams (at least one poll) each of the last three years. Clemson has finished in the top 15 of the AP and USA Today polls each of the previous three years and has virtually clinched a top 15 spot this year with a 13-0 record and No. 1 ranking entering the bowl season.

CLEMSON ORANGE BOWL HISTORY This will be Clemson’s sixth trip to the Orange Bowl. The Tigers are 3-2 in the previous five appearances. Clemson won its first appearance, 15-14, in the 1951 Orange Bowl at the end of the 1950 season over Miami (FL). It is the only time Clemson has played a bowl game against a team playing in its home stadium. Clemson was the first Southern Conference team to be invited to the Orange Bowl when it played in the 1951 event. The Tigers won that game as middle guard Sterling Smith tackled Miami running back Frank Smith in the endzone for a safety with six minutes left. Miami’s Harry Mallios had returned a Fred Cone punt 79 yards for a touchdown on the play before the drive started, but Miami was called for clipping and was backed up to their own eight. After two plays that had clipping calls against the Hurricanes, they had the ball at their own one. That is when Sterling Smith stopped Frank Smith in the endzone for a safety and a 15-14 advantage. The game was not over however as Fred Cone fumbled on Clemson’s next possession and Miami had the ball at the Clemson 24. But, Smith came through again with a 10-yard sack of the Hurricanes quarterback to stop the drive. Clemson went to the 1957 Orange Bowl as ACC Champions. Colorado was the opposition and the Buffalos took a 20-0 lead at halftime. Clemson coach Frank Howard threatened to quit when he talked to his team at halftime if their play did not improve. The team took it to heart and took a 21-20 lead in the fourth period. But, Colorado recovered an on-side kick at midfield (Clemson had earlier recovered an on-side kick), and Colorado drove to the winning touchdown. Clemson won the 1982 Orange Bowl with a 22-15 victory over fourth-ranked Nebraska. It closed a 12-0 season for Clemson and gave the program its first national championship in any sport. The Tigers held the lead most of the game and scored touchdowns on a two-yard run by Cliff Austin and a 13-yard pass from Homer Jordan to Perry Tuttle. Nebraska’s team included future Heisman Trophy Winner Mike Rosier and future San Francisco 49ers star Roger Craig. Clemson did benefit by the fact that starting quarterback Turner Gill missed the game with an injury. West Virginia defeated Clemson 70-33 in the 2012 Orange Bowl after the 2011 season. Clemson had entered the game by virtue of its ACC Championship, the first for the school in 20 years. Clemson held a 17-14 lead at the end of the first quarter. Trailing by 21-17 in the second period, Clemson drove to the West Virginia two, but Andre Ellington fumbled at the one and Darwin Cook raced 99 yards for a touchdown to give West Virginia a 28-17 lead instead of a 24-21 Clemson advantage. Clemson never recovered from the 14-point swing. Clemson won the 2014 Orange Bowl over Ohio State, 40-35 in one of the most thrilling games in Clemson history. Tajh Boyd led the Tigers in his last game with 505 yards of total offense. He completed 31-40 passes for 378 yards and five touchdowns and added 20 rushes for 127 yards and a touchdown. The 505 yards of total offense set a Clemson record for a bowl game. Sammy Watkins had 16 receptions for 227 yards and two scores. The reception total and yardage are both Clemson single game records and Orange Bowl marks. It was also Watkins final game as he turned professional after his junior year. Stanton Seckinger caught a five-yard pass from Tajh Boyd with 6:16 left to put Clemson ahead, 40-35. There was an exchange of turnovers after that, but an interception by Stephone Anthony cemented the win for the Tigers.

CLEMSON’S NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP WIN AT 1982 ORANGE BOWL CLEMSON 22, NEBRASKA 15 JANUARY 1, 1982 AT MIAMI, FL After 86 years of playing football, Clemson claimed its first National Championship with a 22-15 win over perennial Big Eight power Nebraska in the 48th Orange Bowl on the first day of January in 1982. After a 13-3 win over 1980 National Champion Georgia at home on September 19, the Tigers worked their way to the number-one ranking in both wire service polls by the end of the regular season when Penn State beat number-one ranked Pittsburgh on Thanksgiving Day, 48-14. The quarterback for Penn State that day was Todd Blackledge, who will broadcast the Clemson vs. Oklahoma game for ABC. The win over the Cornhuskers gave Clemson the national title and its third perfect season in history. Nebraska took the kickoff, but three plays later, Tiger middle guard William Devane recovered quarterback Mark Mauer’s fumble at the Nebraska 33. Clemson Quarterback Homer Jordan drove Clemson to the Nebraska 24 before the drive stalled, and Donald Igwebuike drilled a 41-yard field goal to put the ACC Champions up, 3-0. Nebraska came right back, however, as the Big Eight title holder drove 69 yards in eight plays to score on a 25-yard halfback pass from Mike Rozier to Anthony Steels. Kevin Seibel’s extra point gave Nebraska the lead at 7-3 with 6:43 to go in the first quarter After an exchange of punts, the Clemson offense moved from the Nebraska 42 yard line to the 21 to set up Igwebuike’s second field goal. The 37-yard boot narrowed the score to 7-6. A second-quarter Phil Bates fumble gave Clemson the ball at the Nebraska 27, and the running combination of Jordan, Kevin Mack, and Cliff Austin moved the ball to the Cornhusker two. Austin, who had been stuck in the hotel elevator for two hours earlier in the day, scampered in for the score that gave Clemson a lead it would not relinquish. On its second possession of the second half, Clemson drove 75 yards in 12 plays to score its final touchdown of the night, a 13-yard pass from Jordan to All-American receiver Perry Tuttle in

the corner of the end zone. It was Tuttle’s eighth touchdown grab of the season, which set a school record at the time. Bob Paulling’s extra point put the Tigers ahead, 19-7. Tuttle’s catch was shown on the cover of Sports Illustrated the following week, the first time a Clemson student-athlete (active at the time) was on the cover of Sports Illustrated. (No Clemson athlete had been on the cover since then until this year. Deshaun Watson has been on twice.) After Billy Davis’s 47-yard punt return, Jordan moved the Tigers to the Nebraska 20, where Igwebuike kicked a 36-yard field goal, his third of the evening, to put Clemson ahead 22-7 with two-and-a half minutes left in the third stanza. Nebraska was down but not out. After a near-interception by Johnny Rembert, Mauer engineered an eight-play, 69-yard drive that was capped by a 26-yard run by Roger Craig. After a penalty, Craig ran in the two-point conversion from eight yards out to close the gap to 22-15 with nine minutes to play. The Clemson defense shut down the Big Red on their final extended drive, then the offense held on to the ball for nearly five-and-a-half minutes to run down the clock to six seconds. Andy Headen deflected Mauer’s desperation pass to preserve the win and the championship for Clemson. Jeff Davis (who is now an assistant AD at Clemson and will travel to Miami for this game) led the Tiger defense with 14 tackles in his final game. He also recovered a fumble, giving him a schoolrecord eight for his career. Bill Smith, now on the Clemson Board of Trustees, added a career-high 10 tackles from his defensive end position in his final game as a Tiger. Both Davis and Smith have sons on the current Clemson team. Clemson Nebraska

Clemson has a 3-1 record at the facility, a 40-37 win over the Hurricanes in overtime in 2009, a 70-33 loss to West Virginia in the Orange Bowl at the end of the 2011 season, a 40-35 win over Ohio State in the Orange Bowl at the end of the 2013 season and a 58-0 win over Miami earlier this season. Clemson has an 8-4 record in NFL stadiums under Dabo Swinney, but the Tigers have won five in a row. The streak includes two wins in the Georgia Dome, the home of the Atlanta Falcons, in 2012, over Auburn and LSU. Clemson then defeated Ohio State at Sun Life Stadium in 2013. Clemson has wins over Miami in Sun Life Stadium and over North Carolina in Bank of American Stadium in Charlotte this year. SWINNEY Year 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2015

TIGERS 6-0 VS. OKLAHOMA, NOTRE DAME AND OHIO STATE SINCE 1978 Clemson has played well against perennial national powers Oklahoma, Notre Dame and Ohio State in recent years. The Tigers are 6-0 against those three schools since 1978, including a 3-0 record over the last three years. Clemson defeated Ohio State in the 2014 Orange Bowl, 40-35. Last year Clemson downed Oklahoma 40-6 in the Russell Athletic Bowl. Earlier this year Clemson defeated Notre Dame, 24-22. If Clemson defeats Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl it would give Clemson a 3-2 record against the Sooners all-time. Clemson is 2-1 against Notre Dame and 2-0 all time against Ohio State. Clemson would be the only school in the country with a winning record against those three schools given a minimum of two games played. All three are ranked among the top five in college football history in terms of winning percentage.

WATSON 113 RUSHING YARDS FROM IMPRESSIVE LIST Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson enters the bowl season with 3512 yards passing and 887 yards rushing. If he gets 113 yards rushing in the postseason he will become just the third player in FBS history to get 3500 yards passing and 1000 yards rushing in the same season. The only two players to do it so far are Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M in 2012 and Dan LeFevour of Central Michigan in 2007. Watson had 131 yards rushing in the ACC Championship game against North Carolina. It was his fourth 100-yard rushing game in the last five games. Only Woody Dantzler has had more 100-yard rushing games in a season as a Clemson quarterback than Watson. Dantzler had five in 2001 when he became the first FBS player to have 2000 yards passing and 1000 rushing in the same year. He did it in 11 games.

CLEMSON VS. RANKED TEAMS IN BOWL GAMES Clemson has a 13-11 record in bowl games against top 25 opponents. That includes wins over top 25 teams in each of the last three seasons. Clemson downed a seventh-ranked LSU team in the 2012 Chick-Fil-A Bowl, then defeated sixth-ranked Ohio State in the Orange Bowl at the end of the 2013 season. The Tigers defeated No. 24 (USA Today) Oklahoma in the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl. Clemson is the only school in the country to beat a top 25 team in a bowl game each of the last three years. Clemson will have another opportunity when facing fourth-ranked Oklahoma this year in the Orange Bowl. The highest ranked team Clemson has faced is LSU, who was number-one entering the 1959 (1958 season) Sugar Bowl, a game Clemson lost by just a 7-0 score. Clemson defeated a fourthranked Nebraska team when it won the National Championship at the 1982 Orange Bowl and that is the highest ranked team Clemson has defeated in a bowl game. Clemson also defeated a sixth-ranked Tennessee team in the 2003 Chick-Fil-A Bowl, a seventh ranked TCU team at the 1959 Bluebonnet Bowl.

CLEMSON’S HIGHEST RANKED VICTORIES Clemson will face a fourth-ranked Oklahoma in the Capital One Orange Bowl on New Year’s Eve in Miami. It will be the highest ranked team Clemson has faced in a bowl game since the Tigers faced fourth-ranked Nebraska in the 1982 Orange Bowl at the end of the 1981 season. Clemson has played well against top ranked teams, especially recently. The Tigers already have two top 10 wins in the bank this year, over No. 6 Notre Dame and No. 8 North Carolina. Clemson defeated three top 10 teams in 1981. Florida State was No. 17 when the Tigers downed the Seminoles on November 7, but they are in the top 10 now. Over the years Clemson has 13 wins over teams ranked no. 8 or better by at least one of the polls. Dabo Swinney has seven of the 13 in his seven years as head coach. That includes five in the last four years, or for this senior class.

SWINNEY ERA AT 100 GAMES The ACC Championship game was the 100th game for Dabo Swinney as Clemson’s head coach. He became the interim head coach on October 13, 2008 and was given the job without the interim title on December 1, 2008. Swinney has a 74-26 record for his first 100 games. When he defeated South Carolina he moved into third place on Clemson’s career coaching victories list. He moved ahead of his predecessor Tommy Bowden, who had 72 wins and 45 losses in his nine plus years as head coach. It is interesting to note that Swinney has a .740 winning percentage with his 74-26 mark. Danny Ford, the only Clemson coach to win a National Championship, was 72-24-4 for his first 100 games. That computes to a .740 winning percentage, the exact same as Swinney. Swinney is the fourth Clemson coach to lead the Tigers for at least 100 games. Frank Howard (295), Ford (129) and Bowden (117) are the others to do it.

BATTLE OF EFFICIENCY QUARTERBACKS Clemson and Oklahoma both have outstanding quarterbacks, signal callers who did not play when the Tigers and Sooners met last year in the Russell Athletic Bowl.

Wayne Gallman needs just 14 rushing yards against Oklahoma to establish the Clemson single season record. The sophomore has 1332 yards rushing in 12 games, just 13 short of the season record of 1345 set by Raymond Priester in 1996. Gallman had 187 yards in Clemson’s win over North Carolina in the ACC Championship game on December 5 to move close to Priester’s record that has stood for 19 years. Gallman also had 68 receiving yards in that game, a career high, and his 255 yards from scrimmage rank fourth best in Clemson history. Terrence Flagler has the record with 274 yards from scrimmage at Wake Forest in 1986.

CLEMSON LOOKING TO END SEASON STRONG Clemson has already had a strong season with a 13-0 record. Now the Tigers are trying to finish strong. Clemson has already defeated rival South Carolina, then won the ACC title with a victory over North Carolina. Clemson’s 2014 team finished the year with a win over South Carolina and a bowl win over Oklahoma. That was the first time in nine years Clemson defeated its state rival and won its bowl game. Clemson is now trying to beat its rival, win the ACC title and win a bowl game in the same year for the first time since 1988. That year Clemson beat South Carolina with a 29-10 win at Clemson, won the ACC title through its play in the regular season, then completed the triple with a Citrus Bowl win over Oklahoma, the same team Clemson plays in the Orange Bowl this year. Overall, Clemson has beaten South Carolina, won a conference title and won a bowl game five times. Clemson won the Southern Conference in 1948, then won the ACC in 1959, 1978, 1981 and 1988.

Clemson has a 5-7 all-time record against teams currently in the Big 12 Conference. That includes last year’s win over Oklahoma in the Russell Athletic Bowl. Clemson had not beaten a Big 12 school since 1989 prior to that. Clemson’s greatest victory came in the 1982 Orange Bowl over then Big Eight member Nebraska. The win gave Clemson its only National Championship. Of course Nebraska is in the Big Ten now.

CLEMSON HAS NINTH LONGEST BOWL STREAK Clemson has been to a bowl game every year since 2005, or a streak of 11 consecutive years. That is tied for the ninth longest streak in the nation. The streak began when Clemson beat Colorado in the Champs Sports Bowl. The last year Clemson did not go to a bowl was 2004 and the Tigers were bowl eligible that year. So, Clemson has a streak of 17 consecutive years of bowl eligibility. The ACC is well represented on the chart below. Florida State has the longest streak at 34 years, Virginia Tech is second at 23 years in a row. Clemson’s opponent in this game, Oklahoma, is fourth on the list.

Swinney is a finalist along with Mark Dantonio of Michigan State and Kirk Ferentz of Iowa. Swinney has led Clemson to a perfect 13-0 season and No. 1 ranking in the College Football Playoff poll, the AP poll and the USA Today Poll. Clemson will face fourth-ranked Oklahoma in the Capital One Orange Bowl in the semifinals of the College Football Playoff on December 31. The 13-0 Tigers are the only undefeated team among the 128 FBS teams. Clemson won the ACC Championship with a 45-37 win over North Carolina. Clemson has won 16 games in a row dating to last year, already a school record. Clemson Has Nine Straight 500-Yard Total Offense Games Clemson has a school record nine consecutive games of at least 500 yards of total offense. The previous mark was five in a row set in 2012. That includes a pair of 600 yard games in the streak, 623 at NC State and 608 against North Carolina in the ACC Championship game. Over the last nine games Clemson has averaged 557 yards per contest, 235 rushing and 322 passing.

WATSON ALREADY HIGH ON CLEMSON CAREER CHARTS Clemson sophomore quarterback Deshaun Watson has played just 21 games for the Tigers, but is already ranked in the top 10 in Clemson history in 10 categories. That includes third in touchdown passes with 44 and third in touchdown responsibility with 60. He has 44 passing touchdowns and 16 rushing, including a team high tying 11 this year. Watson currently holds the Clemson record for completion percentage (.691), yards per pass attempt (9.05), total offense/game (288.8), interception avoidance (2.36%) and passing efficiency (166.79). He also has the single game record for touchdown passes with six against North Carolina in 2014. Watson now has 6,605 yards of total offense, sixth best in school history, and his passing yards (4,978) rank sixth.

NINE NEW STARTING LINEMEN, YET NO. 1 RANKED Clemson has achieved a No. 1 national ranking for each of the last six weeks (College Football Playoff) with a combined zero returning starters in the offensive and defensive lines from the previous season. Has a team ever reached No. 1 ranked status with such inexperience in the lines? Clemson had one returning starter in the offensive line when the season started. That was twoyear starter Ryan Norton at center, but he suffered a knee injury in the second game of the year and has played just 96 snaps all year in five games. A look to the chart below shows that the starting offensive line for the 2015 Tigers had a combined six starts entering the year. The defensive line also had six career starts entering the year. But, key reserves from previous years have stepped up when given the opportunity and as a result Clemson is ranked in the top 25 in the nation in total offense, total defense, scoring offense and scoring defense. Incredibly, eight of the nine made an All-ACC team this year.

RAISING CAIN FOR OPPOSING DEFENSIVE COORDINATORS Clemson freshman receiver Deon Cain caught at least one touchdown pass in each of his last five regular season games, a record for a Clemson freshman. Sammy Watkins held the previous record with four in a row. The overall mark is 10 in a row by DeAndre Hopkins in 2012. Hopkins is currently third in the NFL in receiving yards and tied for second in touchdown receptions. Cain has come on strong this season and has 34 catches for 582 yards and those five touchdowns. He averages 17.1 yards a catch, best on the team, and 48.5 yards per game, second best on the team. Cain had a season-best five catches for 96 yards and a touchdown at South Carolina. The TD catch went for a 55-yard score from Deshaun Watson, his fourth touchdown catch of at least 30 yards this year and his sixth reception of at least 38 yards.

CLEMSON ENTERS 700 WIN CLUB

WATSON NAMED AUTONATION NATIONAL OFFENSIVE POTW Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson was named the AutoNation National Offensive Player of the Week by the Football Writers of America for his performance in Clemson’s 37-27 win over Syracuse on November 14. This was the second time this year Watson has received National Player of the Week honors. He received the same acclaim from the Walter Camp Foundation, the Maxwell Award and the Capital One Impact Performance from ESPN for his performance at NC State. Watson completed 35-48 passes for 368 yards and two scores and also had 13 rushes for 105 yards and a score at Syracuse. His 473 yards of total offense were a career high and the fourth most in Clemson history. His 35 completions were a career high and the third most in a single game in Clemson history.

WATSON & LEGGETT JOIN LAWSON AS FINALISTS Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson and tight end Jordan Leggett were both announced as finalists for major college football awards on Tuesday, November 24. Watson was named a finalist for the Maxwell Award and the Davey O’Brien Award, while Leggett was named a finalist for the John Mackey Award. Clemson defensive end Shaq Lawson was named a finalist for the Nagurski Award, the Lombardi Award and the Hendricks, but did not win any of them. Watson won the O'Brien Award on December 10. Watson is the only quarterback among the Maxwell Award finalists. The other finalists are Alabama running back Derrick Henry and Stanford running back Christian McCaffrey. The other finalists for the O’Brien Award are Baker Mayfield of Oklahoma and Trevone Boykin of TCU.Watson is the first Clemson player to be a finalist for both awards. Watson has led Clemson to a No. 1 ranking and a 13-0 record so far this year. It is the first time Clemson has won its first 12 games since 1981, the year Clemson won the National Championship. Watson is the only quarterback in the nation to rush for 800 yards and pass for 3,500 yards this season. Leggett was joined on the list of Mackey finalists by Hunter Henry of Arkansas and Austin Hooper of Stanford. The Clemson junior has caught 34 passes for 442 yards and a team best seven touchdowns this year. He had at least one touchdown reception in five straight games at one point, a Clemson record for a tight end. Leggett had two touchdown receptions among his four receptions for 56 yards in the victory over Georgia Tech. He tied a school record for touchdown catches in a game by a Clemson tight end. In the victory over Florida State, the junior from Navarre, Fla. had six catches for 101 yards and became just the fourth Clemson tight end in history to have at least 100 receiving yards in a single game.

COMPARISONS WITH 1981 With a 13-0 record and a No. 1 national ranking there are many comparisons between this Clemson team and the 1981 squad that won the National Championship. Here are a few, including some personal relationships. *The defensive captain of Clemson’s 1981 team was Jeff Davis. Davis currently works in the football administration and he has twin sons on the current Clemson team, Judah and J.D. Davis. *Current Clemson starting offensive tackle Mitch Hyatt is the nephew of 1981 first-team All-ACC defensive tackle Dan Benish. *Clemson defensive line coach Dan Brooks coached 1981 running back Kevin Mack in high school in Kings Mountain, N.C. *Clemson freshman linebacker Jarvis Magwood is the son of 1981 wide receiver Frank Magwood. *Clemson freshman tight end Cannon Smith is the son of 1981 starting defensive end Bill Smith, who is currently a member of the Clemson Board of Trustees. *The dates for 10 of the 13 games this year coincide with the dates of the games in 1981. Clemson opened the 1981 season on September 5 with a 45-10 win over Wofford. This year on September 5 Clemson opened the season with a 49-10 win over Wofford. *Clemson beat Kentucky 21-3 on October 3, 1981. The Tigers led Notre Dame 21-3 going in to the fourth quarter on October 3, 2015. *Clemson recorded big wins on November 7 during each season. Clemson won at eighth-ranked North Carolina, 10-8 on November 7, 1981. This year, Clemson beat Florida State 23-13 on November 7. *Clemson’s 1981 team was coached by Alabama native and University of Alabama graduate Danny Ford. This Clemson team is coached by Alabama native and University of Alabama graduate Dabo Swinney. *Deshaun Watson was on the cover of Sports Illustrated in the first week of November. It was the first time a Clemson athlete was on the cover of S.I. since Perry Tuttle in 1981. Watson was on the cover a second time in early December. *The Tiger quarterback in 1981 was Athens, Ga. native Homer Jordan. Gainesville, Ga. native Deshaun Watson is Clemson’s quarterback this year. The two Georgia cities are just 35 miles apart. *Clemson defeated Miami 58-0 this year, the largest victory margin in an ACC game for the Clemson program since an 82-24 win over Wake Forest in 1981. *Clemson played an eighth ranked North Carolina team on December 5 for the ACC Championship. In 1981 Clemson played an eighth ranked UNC team on November 7 that was basically for the ACC title. Entering the game in 1981, North Carolina had just one loss and that was to South Carolina. This year North Carolina entered with just one loss, to South Carolina. Clemson won both games.

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

Clemson finished the ACC season with an 8-0 regular season record. It is the first 8-0 ACC season in Clemson history. Clemson had been an undefeated ACC Champion four times, 1967, 1978, 1981 and 1982. All four of those years the Tigers were 6-0. In 1983, the first year Georgia Tech was in the league, Clemson was 7-0 vs. ACC teams, but the Tigers were on probation that year and could not claim a championship. The ACC has now had four 8-0 champions in the last six years, Virginia Tech in 2010 and Florida State in 2013 and 2014. But, every ACC Champion had at least one loss from 2001-09.

NOTES ON CLEMSON OFFENSIVE LINE The Clemson offensive line has been one of the most overachieving in the nation and is a big

reason the Tigers are 13-0. All-five starters on this year’s offensive line were named to an All-ACC team by the media and the coaches (1,2 or 3), a first in Clemson history. Clemson returned just one offensive line starter from 2014 and that was Ryan Norton. Norton sustained a knee injury in the second game of the year and has played just five games and 96 total snaps. So Clemson really has played with five new starters in the offensive line this year. The offensive line has been a big reason Clemson has had 10 games of at least 200 yards rushing, including wins over Louisville, Notre Dame, Georgia Tech and Florida State. The biggest indicator that this line was something special was the win over Notre Dame when Clemson won the rushing battle, 202-116. Notre Dame’s offensive line was regarded as among the best in the nation entering the season. In terms of individual honors, Clemson had the ACC Offensive lineman of the Week five of the 12 regular season games this season, more than any other school. Three different players, Jay Guillermo (three times), Joe Gore and Mitch Hyatt were named ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week. Guillermo won the award in consecutive weeks, the first Clemson offensive lineman to do that since 2007 and just the fifth to do it since Player of the Week awards started in 1978. Hyatt was the first ACC true freshman in 10 years to be ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week. He was the first Clemson true freshman to start at left tackle in a season opener and for course of the season since 1944. Hyatt has played the most plays by a true freshman offensive lineman in school history. Guard Eric Mac Lain was on the preseason Watch List for Lombardi Award, was named preseason All-ACC, and Midseason All-ACC by Si.com. The Clemson offensive line was named one of the top 14 offensive lines in the nation for the second quarter of the season by the Joe Moore Award. The group is also one of 20 semifinalists for the national award.

SWINNEY RECORDS 14TH TOP 25 WIN Dabo Swinney is 14-16 against top 25 teams as Clemson head coach, after the win over No. 8, North Carolina on December 5. It was the third win over a top 20 team this year. Earlier Clemson defeated a sixth ranked Notre Dame team, 24-22 and beat No. 17 Florida State 23-13 at Clemson. FSU has since jumped into the top 10. The North Carolina victory was Swinney’s 14th against a top 25 team and that moved him into second place on the Clemson list. Tommy Bowden had 13 wins during his career from 1999-2008. He was 13-23 against top 25 teams. Danny Ford has the record with 20 wins over top 25 teams in his Clemson coaching career from 1978-89. Ford was 20-12-1 against top 25 teams in his Clemson coaching career.

CLEMSON DEFENSE AMONG NATION’S BEST Clemson had to replace eight starters from last year, but it has not stopped the Tigers from having a great season. Brent Venables’s group ranks among the best in the nation in many categories. That includes three areas where Clemson leads the nation, three-and-outs per game, fewest first downs allowed and completion percentage.

WATSON NEEDS 113 YARDS FOR 1,000 RUSHING

Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson has 887 yards rushing through 13 games, the third most in a season in Clemson history by a quarterback. He went over 500 yards for the year in the win over Syracuse when he had 105 yards on the ground, his second straight 100-yard rushing game. He was the first Clemson quarterback to go back to back since Woody Dantzler in 2001. He added another 100-yard rushing game against South Carolina when he had 21-114. He then had a career high 131 yards on the ground in 23 attempts in the ACC Championship game against North Carolina. It was his fourth 100-yard game of the year, most since Woody Dantzler had five in 2001. Watson is just the fifth quarterback in Clemson history to reach 500 yards rushing for a season. The others to do it are Ken Pengitore, Steve Fuller (twice), Woody Dantzler (three times) and Tajh Boyd. Watson had an outstanding rushing performance as a Clemson quarterback in the win over a top 20 Florida State team when he had 16 carries for 107 yards. It was his third game this year with at least 90 yards rushing. He had 16-93 in the win over Notre Dame, 8-98 in just a little over a half at Miami, and the 16-107 against Florida State. Overall, a Clemson quarterback has rushed for at least 500 yards in a season, eight times, including Watson

LEGGETT RECORDS FOURTH 100-YARD GAME BY A TE Jordan Leggett had a career high six receptions for 101 yards in the win over Florida State. He became just the fourth Clemson tight end to have at least 100 yards receiving in a game. The Clemson record for a tight end was recorded against The Citadel by John McMakin in 1970 when he had 5-107 receiving. So Leggett was just six yards short of the record. Leggett was named one of three finalists for the Mackey Award on November 23. While a tight end has had 100 yards receiving just four times, three of the instances have taken place under Dabo Swinney. Michael Palmer did it at South Carolina in 2009 and Brandon Ford did it against NC State in 2012. For the season, Leggett also has seven touchdown receptions. He is just one touchdown reception short of the season record for a tight end. Dwayne Allen had eight in 2011 and Brandon Ford had eight in 2012. Leggett, a junior, has 10 career touchdown receptions, two short of the Clemson career record of 12 held by McMakin from 1969-71, Allen from 2009-11 and Ford, 2009-12. Leggett does have one record on his resume this year. He went five consecutive games with at least one touchdown catch to set a Clemson record for consecutive games with a touchdown catch by a Clemson tight end. 100-YARD RECEIVING GAMES BY CLEMSON TIGHT END Player Year Opponent John McMakin 1970 The Citadel Michael Palmer 2009 South Carolina Jordan Leggett 2015 Florida State Brandon Ford 2012 NC State

HUEGEL PERFECT IN ACC PLAY

Clemson kicker Greg Huegel was perfect on field goals in ACC play, 17-17 and is 22-25 overall. Not bad for a freshman walk-on. Huegel made the most field goals without a miss in conference play in the country this year. He is also 11-12 on field goals on the road. He was named a second-team All-American by SI.com, the first walk-on in Clemson history to make an All-America team. Huegel was outstanding against Florida State as he made 3-3 field goals and 2-2 extra points to score 11 of Clemson’s 23 points in the 23-13 win over the 17th ranked Seminoles. He was also 3-3 against Syracuse and made 16 in a row to close the regular season. The streak was snapped when he missed from 47 yards out in the ACC Championship game. It was the second longest streak in Clemson history The record is 20 in a row by Chandler Catanzaro over the 2011 and 2012 seasons.

CLEMSON CLINCHES ATLANTIC DIVISION Clemson clinched the Atlantic Division championship with a win over Florida State on November 7. Clemson has won or tied for the Atlantic Division title four of the seven years Dabo Swinney has been at Clemson. This will be the third time Clemson has played in the ACC Championship game. He also took the Tigers to the championship game in 2009 and 2011. The Tigers won the title in 2011. This was the eighth time Clemson clinched the ACC title or the Atlantic Division at home.

CLEMSON OFFENSE FAR ABOVE AVERAGE VS. OPPONENTS Clemson averages 510.6 yards of total offense per game this year, 12th in the nation. The Tigers have reached these numbers against a schedule that includes five of the top 20 (total) defenses in the nation. In Clemson’s 12 games against FBS opponents the Tigers have gained 509 yard per game, 147 yards per game above what those teams have averaged so far this season. Clemson had 512 yards against Florida State and the Seminoles give up 328 a game. Boston College leads the nation in total defense. Clemson got 532 against the Eagles, 278 over their season average. Clemson gained 623 against NC State, 291 over their season average. So far this year only Notre Dame has been able to hold Clemson under what they normally give up per game. As you can see by the list below, Clemson has nine consecutive games with at least 500 yards total offense, a first in school history. CLEMSON OFFENSE VS.

CLEMSON RANKED IN TOP 25 ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL Clemson has shown outstanding play on both sides of the ball this year. An example is the fact that Clemson is ranked in the top 25 in the nation on offense and defense in six different areas. Clemson is in the top 25 in the nation in scoring offense and scoring defense, rushing offense and rushing defense, total offense and total defense, passing efficiency offense and passing efficiency defense and third-down conversion offense and defense.

WATSON THIRD IN NATION IN QBR

Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson is third in the nation in Quarterback Rating with an 86.4 figure according to ESPN’s formula for calculating the statistic. Watson’s 98.9 rating at Miami on October 24 was the best in the nation this year by a quarterback from a Power Five Conference school against another Power Five Conference school. Watson also ranks in the top 25 in many other more conventional NCAA statistics, including third in completion percentage with a .695 mark, on pace to be the best in Clemson history.

GOODSON, HYATT NAMED ACC PLAYERS OF THE WEEK VS. FSU Clemson offensive lineman Mitch Hyatt and linebacker B.J. Goodson both earned ACC Player of the Week honors for their performance against Florida State. Hyatt was named the ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week and Goodson won the Linebacker of the Week honors. It was the fourth time this year that a Clemson offensive lineman had been named ACC Lineman of the Week. Jay Guillermo won the honor twice and Joe Gore was the recipient versus N.C State. Hyatt’s selection was special because he became the first Clemson true freshman to win ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week honors. He was the first true freshman at any ACC school to win Lineman of the Week honors in at least 10 years. Hyatt graded 93 percent and had four knockdown blocks in 85 plays against the Seminoles. Goodson won Linebacker of the Week honors for the second time this year. He also won the honor for his performance against Notre Dame on October 3. In both games he recovered a fumble in the fourth period. He had nine tackles, including 3.5 for loss against Florida State. Deshaun Watson was named ACC Back of the Week four times this year. He completed 23-30 passes for 383 yards and five touchdowns in Clemson’s 56-41 win over NC State. He also added 54 yards rushing in 14 attempts and a touchdown. He finished the day with 437 yards of total offense and six touchdowns. The six total touchdowns tied for the second most in a game in Clemson history. Watson was also named the National Offensive Player of the Week by the Walter Camp Foundation for his efforts against NC State.

CLEMSON GETTING OFF TO GREAT START Getting off to a good start is a big reason Clemson has a 13-0 record and No. 1 national ranking so far this year. Clemson has outscored the opposition 148-56 in the first quarter and 159-50 in the second period this year. Those numbers were certainly enhanced at Miami where Clemson outscored the Hurricanes 21-0 in each of the first two periods. Clemson’s 42-0 lead at intermission was the largest in school history for an ACC game. The previous mark was a 41-0 lead on Duke at the half in 1984. Clemson has outscored the opposition 307-106 by halftime this year, an advantage of 15.5 points per game. Clemson has trailed in the second half of just two games, for one possession in the third period at Louisville and in the second half against Florida State. Clemson has not trailed in the fourth quarter in any of the last 16 games, obviously Clemson’s 16-game winning streak.

NOTEWORTHY TEAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN THE 58-0 WIN AT MIAMI

CLEMSON HAS TRAILED FOR JUST 62:14 SO FAR THIS SEASON

• Tied Clemson record for victory margin in an ACC game. Clemson also had a 58-point win over Wake Forest in 1981, an 82-24 victory. • Set Clemson record for victory margin in an ACC road game with 58-0 victory. • Largest victory margin in any road game since a 94-0 win at Furman on September 25, 1915, just a little over 100 years ago. • First Clemson shutout in a road game since a 17-0 win at Maryland in 1995. • Handed Miami its largest margin of defeat in 90 years of football. Previous record was 56 points in a 70-14 loss in 1944 to Texas A&M. Clemson’s victory margin ironically equaled the NCAA record consecutive home wins Miami recorded between 1985-94. • Clemson recorded 33 first downs, tied for the second most ever against a Miami football team. • Clemson defense forced 10 three-and-outs, held Miami to 93 yards passing, 53 yards rushing and 146 yards of total offense. Clemson held Miami to 2.9 yards per pass attempt and 1.8 yards per rush.

Clemson has trailed for just 62 minutes and 14 seconds out of 780 minutes played through the first 13 games of 2015. That means Clemson has been behind just eight percent of the time so far this year. Clemson trailed 10-7 for 3:38 of the second quarter against Louisville and for just 2:48 at 7-0 in the first quarter against Boston College. In both situations Clemson scored on the next possession after the opposition took the lead. The Eagles were the first team to score first against Clemson this year. Clemson trailed for 7:04 against NC State, but again came back to score on the next possession after the Pack took the lead. Florida State is the only team to lead Clemson for more than half the game this year as they had the lead for 34:14 of the 60 minutes. Clemson has never trailed in eight of the 13 games this year and Clemson has not trailed in the fourth quarter in any game. In fact Clemson has not trailed in the fourth game in any of its last 16 games. Seven times this year Clemson has scored a touchdown on its opening drive of the game and six times they have scored on the first two drives. Five times Clemson has scored touchdowns on its first two drives of the game.

CLEMSON FINISHED PERFECT OCTOBER

When Clemson defeated NC State in Raleigh on Halloween it gave Clemson a perfect 5-0 record for the month of October. It is the first time since September of 2000 that Clemson has had a 5-0 month. The other times it happened are October of 1977 and October of 1981. Clemson was 4-0 in November. This was the first time since 1983 that Clemson was perfect in October and November in the same year.

GUILLERMO THREE-TIME ACC OFFENSIVE LINEMAN OF THE WEEK Clemson center Jay Guillermo was named ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week for consecutive weeks in October, wins over Georgia Tech and Boston College. Guillermo graded 88 percent on 78 plays and had three knockdown blocks in Clemson’s 34-17 win over Georgia Tech on October 10. He was Clemson’s highest graded offensive lineman according to the Tigers coaches for the second straight week. He was a significant reason Clemson gained 532 yards of total offense against a Boston College team that was number-one in the nation in total defense allowing just 140 yards a game. Guillermo was honored for a second straight week on October 17 when the Tigers defeated Boston College. Guillermo became the first Clemson offensive lineman to be named ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week for consecutive games since Barry Richardson did it against Maryland and Duke in 2007. The only other offensive linemen to win the honor in consecutive games are Lee Nanney (1980), John Phillips (1987), and Stacy Long (1989 and 1990). He won his third award for his performance against South Carolina when he graded 93 percent.

ALEXANDER THORPE AWARD SEMIFINALIST Clemson cornerback McKensie Alexander was named named one of 16 semifinalists for the Jim Thorpe Award in late October. The honor is presented each year to the top defensive back in the nation. Alexander is one of two sophomores on the list, and is joined in that category by Shawun Lurry of Northern Illinois. Other ACC players in the final 16 are Jeremy Cash of Duke and Jalen Ramsey of Florida State. Alexander is one of the reasons Clemson ranks first in the nation in completion percentage defense (.461). Alexander has not been a player opposing offensive coordinators have challenged over his 25 games as a starter. Last year, as a redshirt freshman, opposing quarterbacks completed just 20 passes in 57 attempts for 280 yards and two touchdowns against the man he was assigned to on defense. He was on the field for 766 plays, so opposing quarterbacks threw his way just once every 13 plays, or just 4.4 times a game. They completed a pass on his man just once every 38 plays he was on the field. So far in 2015, opponents are avoiding him even more. In 12 games he has played, opponents have completed just 11 passes in 42 attempts against Alexander’s man. He has not allowed a touchdown pass in his last 21 games over two years. Going head to head with Notre Dame’s Will Fuller, Alexander allowed the Notre Dame star to catch just one pass for 14 yards when he was guarding Fuller. Fuller had a 23-yard reception when Alexander was not involved in the play. Fuller’s two receptions against Clemson are his low total for his last 22 games. Clemson and Wake Forest are the only opponents to keep Fuller out of the endzone this year.

CLEMSON RANKED FIRST WITH YOUNG TEAM Clemson is ranked first in the AP poll despite having played the fifth most freshmen in the country so far this year. According to the University of Wyoming Sports Information Office, Clemson has played 28 freshmen this year, 14 true and 14 redshirt, and that is the fifth most in the nation.

WATSON HAD TWO 450 YARD TOTAL OFFENSE GAMES

Deshaun Watson had his second career 400-yard passing game in the win over Boston College. The sophomore from Gainesville, Ga. connected on 27-41 passes for 420 yards and three scores. Watson had 435 yards passing in his first career start last year against North Carolina. He also threw for a Clemson record six touchdowns in that game. Watson’s 420-yard game against Boston College was just the sixth in school history. Tajh Boyd has the record with 455 passing yards at Syracuse in 2013. Boyd also had 428 at Wake Forest and 426 at home against NC State. The only other 400-yard game was by Charlie Whitehurst at Duke in 2002. Ironically, like Watson, Whitehurst’s performance was in his first career start as a freshman. Watson had 452 yards of total offense against Boston College, the eighth game of at least 450 yards by a player in Clemson history. He then had a career high 473 yards of total offense at Syracuse. Watson now has three of the nine total offense games in Clemson history. Boyd had four games with at least 450 yards total offense.He added 383 yards passing and 54 rushing for 437 yards of total offense in the win at Miami giving him consecutive 400 yard total offense games.

HYATT SETS RECORD FOR PLAYS BY TRUE FRESHMAN OL Mitch Hyatt started at left tackle in Clemson’s 49-10 win over Wofford. It was a landmark start for the true freshman from Sugar Hill, Ga. Hyatt, who was a first-team Parade All-American and USA Today All-American coming out of North Gwinnett High School, became the first Clemson true freshman offensive tackle to start the season opener since 1944 when Phil Prince started the opener against Presbyterian. Hyatt had a 92 percent grade from assistant coach Robbie Caldwell, and helped Clemson jump out to a 35-7 lead at intermission. He was one of the starting 11 that played six possessions and scored six touchdowns. He continued his fine play at Louisville and was Clemson›s ACC Rookie of the Week nomination for that game off a 90 percent coaches film grade. Hyatt was just the third true freshman to start the opening game of the year since Dabo Swinney took over on a full time basis in 2009. The others were Chandler Catanzaro (2010, PK) and Adam Humphries (2011, WR). Hyatt was the first true freshman to start any position on the offensive line in the first game since 1980 when James Farr started the season opener at center against Rice. He was the ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week for the win over Florida State, the first Clemson true freshman to win the award and the first ACC true freshman to win it in at least 10 years. Hyatt comes from good stock. His uncle, Dan Benish, played for the Tigers as a defensive tackle from 1979-82 and was first-team All-ACC in 1981 when Clemson won the National title. He also earned a Super Bowl Championship ring with the Washington Redskins in 1987. Hyatt has played 885 snaps through 13 games, the most offensive plays by a Clemson true freshman offensive lineman in a season. He broke the record of 471 that had been held by Barry Richardson in 2004. On November 30 he was named third team all-ACC, the first Clemson true freshman lineman to make an All-ACC team.

VERSUS

CLEMSON SUCCESSFUL VS. WINNINGEST PROGRAMS Clemson defeated the winningest team in college football history on Oct. 3 when it defeated Notre Dame, 24-22 in Memorial Stadium. The Tigers then downed No. 15 on the list, Miami (FL) by a 58-0 count on October 24. It was the worst margin of defeat in Miami history (90 years). Facing teams among the best in the history of college football is nothing new to Clemson and head coach Dabo Swinney. Over the last five years (2011-15), Clemson has beaten nine different teams on the list a total of 12 times. The Tigers have a 12-4 overall record against the top 20 winningest programs during this time. Three of the victories have taken place in the last three bowl games. Clemson defeated #13 LSU in the 2012 Chick-fil-A Bowl, downed #4 Ohio State at the 2014 Orange Bowl, then defeated #5 Oklahoma at the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl.

WATSON A HEISMAN FINALIST Clemson sophomore quarterback Deshaun Watson has been named one of three finalists for the 2015 Heisman Trophy. Watson will be joined Saturday night’s ceremony in New York by Derrick Henry of Alabama, and Christian McCaffrey of Stanford. The Heisman Trophy recipient will be announced from the PlayStation Theatre in New York City on ESPN on Saturday on ESPN during a program that will begin at 8 p.m. Watson is Clemson’s first Heisman Finalist. Steve Fuller finished sixth in the 1978 voting and C.J. Spiller was sixth in the 2009 voting, but neither received an invitation to New York. Those are the only Clemson players to finish in the top 10 of the Heisman voting since the award began in 1935. Watson has quarterbacked Clemson to a perfect 13-0 record and No. 1 national ranking in the College Football Playoff poll, the AP Poll and the USA Today rankings. Clemson was ranked No. 1 in all six of the College Football Playoff polls. Clemson has three wins over teams in the top 10 of the College Football Playoff rankings (Notre Dame, Florida State and North Carolina), the only team in the country that can make that statement. The native of Gainesville, Ga. was named a first-team All-American by USA Today, and has completed 287 of 413 passes for 3,512 yards and 30 touchdowns. Additionally he has 887 yards rushing in 163 attempts and has 11 rushing touchdowns. He is the only player in the nation with at least 800 yards rushing and 3,500 yards passing. In fact he is the first player to do it since 2012 (Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M). Watson has accounted for 41 touchdowns rushing and passing, fifth best in the nation and he ranks ninth in total offense per game and 11th in passing efficiency. He has gained at least 380 total offense yards in each of his last six games and has guided the Clemson offense to a record nine straight games with at least 500 yards total offense. Watson is a big reason Clemson has won 16 consecutive games, a school record, and has already established a season mark for victories (13), and ACC wins (nine). Clemson won the ACC Championship on December 5 with a 45-37 win over No. 8 North Carolina. Watson threw for 279 yards and rushed for a career high 131 in the victory.

HEAD COACH DABO SWINNEY

There is a strong coaching heritage over the 118 years of Clemson football that dates to the early 1900s, when John Heisman led the program. Jess Neely and Frank Howard continued the winning and joined Heisman in the College Football Hall of Fame. Danny Ford, a finalist for the Hall of Fame last year, led Clemson to the 1981 National Championship. Dabo Swinney has been at Clemson for just eight years as head coach, but he has nearly cemented himself among the Tiger legends of the past. He will be the first person to tell you that the program has not reached all of its goals just yet, but he has the 2015 Tigers on the cusp of winning the program’s second National Championship. Swinney has guided Clemson to the No. 1 national ranking in every College Football Playoff poll as the Tigers are set for the Orange Bowl semifinal matchup against Oklahoma. Following the regular season, he was the recipient of the Home Depot National Coachof-the-Year honor, Walter Camp Foundation National Coach-of-the-Year and Sporting News National Coachof-the-Year, a testament to the program he has built at Clemson. Clemson’s 13th win over North Carolina in the ACC Championship Game on December 5 established a single-season school record. It was the Tigers’ 15th ACC Championship, matching Florida State for most in history. Along the way, Swinney’s team also defeated top10 opponents in Notre Dame and Florida State. He coached Deshaun Watson to numerous accolades. The sophomore quarterback became Clemson’s first Heisman Trophy finalist after putting together a stellar season. He was named the ACC Player-of-theYear and ACC Championship Game Most Valuable Player, in addition to being a finalist for most national offensive awards. In addition, a record 17 players were named to one of three All-ACC teams in 2015, including all five starting offensive linemen for the first time in school history. He won the Davey O'Brien Award as the top quarterback. The 2012, 2013 and 2014 seasons were also noteworthy, with three top-15 final rankings in the polls. Clemson joined Alabama, Florida State, Ohio State and Oregon as the only schools in the nation who can make that claim. Each of Clemson’s teams from 2011-14 also won 10+ games, the first time the program did that since the 1987-90 era. From 2011-14, Clemson had a 42-11 record, the most wins in a four-year period in school history. Twenty-seven of the victories took place against ACC teams, including a 38-10 triumph over No. 3 Virginia Tech that gave the Tigers the 2011 ACC title. Now that mark has been topped by the 2015 seniors, who have a 45-7 record, including a 28-4 mark in the ACC. Clemson was in the top 10 of APR scores and the final top 25 of the AP and USA Today polls in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014, the only FBS program that could make that claim. In eight years (seven full seasons) as the Tigers’ head coach, Swinney has directed Clemson to a 74-26 overall record (.740) and a 47-14 ACC regular-season mark (.770). He has also led the Tigers to the ACC Championship game three times, won two ACC Championships, won or shared four ACC Atlantic Division titles, won four bowl games and has been named national coach-of-theyear three times. In 2014, Clemson overcame a slew of season-ending injuries and a difficult road schedule to register a 10-3 overall record and 6-2 mark in ACC regular-season games. Evidence of the mass injuries were shown by the fact that 48 different Tigers started at least one game among the 24 regular positions. The Tigers finished the 2014 season ranked No. 15 in both the AP and coaches polls and was No. 17 in the final College Football Playoff ranking. The top-15 ranking marked the fourth straight year Clemson finished

ranked in the polls under Swinney, who was named 2014 Grant Teaff National Coach-of-the-Year by FCA. He was also a finalist for the 2014 Bobby Dodd National Coach-of-the-Year Award, and won the Gene Stallings Award. Swinney’s Tigers joined Alabama, Florida State and Oregon as the only schools in the nation ranked in the top 25 of the final polls each season from 2011-14. Losses at No. 12 Georgia and No. 1 Florida State within Clemson’s first three games of the 2014 season saw the Tigers in contention in the fourth quarter in both, including an overtime loss to the Seminoles. But Clemson rebounded and won its next six games, all against ACC foes. With the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl win over Oklahoma and Head Coach Bob Stoops by a score of 406, Swinney became the first and only coach in history to win three bowl games in consecutive seasons over teams whose head coaches had previously won the national title. Defense was the key to success for the 2014 Tigers, as they led in the nation in total defense, pass efficiency defense, first downs allowed, third-down conversion percentage defense and tackles for loss along with being in the top five in many other defensive categories. Defensive end Vic Beasley was named ACC Defensive Player-of-the-Year as well as being a finalist for multiple national awards and a first-team All-American thanks to his 21.5 tackles for loss and 12 sacks. All season, he led active players in the nation in career tackles for loss (52.5) and career sacks (33). Linebacker Stephone Anthony and defensive tackle Grady Jarrett joined Beasley as First-Team All-ACC selections. Beasley and Anthony were both first-round draft choices in May 2015. Clemson’s young 2014 offense was set back with the injury of first-year freshman quarterback Deshaun Watson, who suffered injuries that forced him to miss more than half the season. He still had 14 passing touchdowns against only two interceptions and a 188.6 passing efficiency, one of the best figures in the country. The Tigers’ top pass catcher (Artavis Scott) and rusher (Wayne Gallman) were also freshmen. Scott had 76 receptions for 965 yards and eight touchdowns, while Gallman had 769 rushing yards and four touchdowns. Clemson capped off the 2013 season with a thrilling 40-35 victory over No. 6 Ohio State in the Orange Bowl. Clemson had an 11-2 record after finishing 7-1 in ACC regular-season games for the second year in a row. It marked Clemson’s first back-to-back 11-win seasons in school history. The Tigers had a 4-0 record in ACC road games, the first time that happened since 1995. The Tigers were No. 12 in the final BCS standings. It was the third straight year Clemson finished in the top 15 of the BCS standings, one of only six schools that could make that claim. Clemson, who was ranked No. 7 in the final USA Today poll and No. 8 in the final AP poll, was also one of only five programs ranked in the top 20 of every BCS standing from 2011 to 2013. For the fourth time in his first five full seasons as head coach, Swinney was a finalist for the Liberty Mutual National Coach-of-the-Year Award in 2013. Swinney was also one of 16 semifinalists for national coachof-the-year by the Maxwell Football Club Collegiate Coach-of-the-Year Award for the second year in a row. The Clemson offense continued to put up record-setting numbers in 2013, as it averaged 40.2 points and 507.7 yards per game. The Tiger defense also finished in the top 25 in the nation in scoring defense, total defense and turnovers forced. Clemson joined Florida State as the only schools in the nation to finish in the top 25 in the nation in scoring offense, scoring defense, total offense and total defense. Tajh Boyd broke almost every Clemson career record for quarterbacks thanks in part to 2013, when he completed 68.5 percent of his passes for 3,851 yards and 34 touchdowns. He also added a team-high 10 rushing touchdowns. Boyd’s 107 career passing touchdowns and 133 total touchdowns were ACC records as well.

The 2012 campaign featured a record-setting offense. Clemson had six of the 11 offensive players on the All-ACC first team chosen by the media and set over 80 Tiger team and individual records. Leading the way was Boyd, the ACC Player-of-theYear. The quarterback joined center Dalton Freeman as first-team All-Americans by AFCA, just the third time since 1945 that the AFCA first-team All-America quarterback and center were from the same school. Boyd’s favorite wide receiver, DeAndre Hopkins, had 18 receiving touchdowns, second-most in the nation, and was a second-team All-American. He was a big reason Clemson scored a school-record 533 points. Swinney was a finalist for the 2012 Liberty Mutual National Coach-of-the-Year Award for the third time. He was also one of 16 semifinalists for national coach-ofthe-year by the Maxwell Football Club Collegiate Coachof-the-Year Award. Swinney’s 2011 squad, which ended the season ranked No. 22 in the nation, captured Clemson’s first ACC title since 1991 when it beat No. 3 Virginia Tech 38-10 in the ACC Championship game in Charlotte, N.C. It tied for the highest-ranked team the Tigers defeated in history. The win, the Tigers’ second over the Hokies in 2011, gave Clemson its first 10-win season since 1990. The Tigers’ four wins over top-25 ranked teams established a school record. Swinney has 14 top25 wins in his head-coaching career, including eight victories over top-10 teams. The Tigers jumped out to an 8-0 record and a No. 6 national ranking after being unranked in the preseason. Games 3-5 marked a tough stretch, as Clemson hosted No. 19 Auburn, who entered with a national-best 17game winning streak, and No. 11 Florida State along with a road game at No. 10 Virginia Tech. The Tigers were victorious in all three contests by scores of 38-24, 35-30 and 23-3, respectively, marking the first time in history that an ACC team won three consecutive games over top-25 ranked (AP) teams. Clemson also held Virginia Tech without a touchdown for the first time in a game at Blacksburg since 1995. For his efforts, Swinney was named Bobby Dodd National Coach-of-the-Year in 2011 to become the first Tiger head coach to win a national coach-of-the-year award since 1981, when Danny Ford directed Clemson to the national title.

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

Swinney, who was also one of five finalists for the Eddie Robinson National Coach-of-the-Year Award, one of 10 finalists for the Bear Bryant National Coach-ofthe-Year Award, one of 10 finalists for the Liberty Mutual Coach-of-the-Year Award and received the Regional AFCA Coach-of-the-Year Award in 2011, led the Tigers to their first Orange Bowl berth since 1981 with the help of five First-Team All-ACC players. Dwayne Allen (TE), Boyd (QB), Andre Branch (DE), Freeman (C) and Watkins (WR) all earned first-team honors, while Andre Ellington (RB), Catanzaro (PK) and Brandon Thompson (DT) earned second-team honors. Watkins was also Second-Team All-ACC as a specialist. Allen received the John Mackey Award as the nation’s top tight end and totaled 50 receptions for 598 yards and eight touchdowns. Boyd set the school record for total yards (4,046), passing yards (3,828) and passing touchdowns (33), all marks he eclipsed in subsequent seasons. Branch, a finalist for the Hendricks Award, had an ACC-high 17 tackles for loss and an ACC-high 10.5 sacks, including tying school-records for tackles for loss (6) and sacks (4) in Clemson’s win at No. 10 Virginia Tech. Freeman was a finalist for the Rimington Trophy as well. Watkins was one of the most dynamic freshmen in the nation. The ACC Rookie-of-the-Year totaled 82 receptions for 1,219 yards and 12 touchdowns along with a 25.0-yard average and one touchdown on kickoff returns despite missing one game due to injury. Watkins teamed up with Ellington to give Clemson a 1,000-yard receiver and 1,000-yard rusher, as Ellington had 1,178 rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns. Watkins was also an AP First-Team All-American, just the fourth in college football history as a first-year freshman. Swinney became just the second Tiger coach to lead Clemson’s program into a bowl game in his first two full years as head coach, joining his predecessor, Bowden. The 2010 schedule was one of the most challenging in school history, as nine bowl teams were on the regularseason slate and two of the four non-conference opponents were ranked in the top 25, just the second time in 21 years the Tigers faced two top-25 non-conference opponents in the regular season. The 2010 season included wins over bowl teams Georgia Tech, Maryland and NC State. NC State was ranked No. 23 in the nation and was leading the ACC in scoring. But the defense held NC State and Russell Wilson to just one touchdown and 13 points. The team excelled defensively in 2010 and was 13th in the nation in scoring defense and in the top 25 in both total defense and passing defense. C.J. Spiller was a unanimous first-team All-American in 2009 and Da’Quan Bowers duplicated the feat on the defense a year later. Bowers won the 2010 Nagurski Award as the nation’s top defensive player and he received the Hendricks Award as the country’s top defensive end. He was also a finalist for the Bednarik Award and Lombardi Award. He led the nation in sacks (15.5) and tied for the national lead in tackles for loss (26). Bowers was one of four First-Team All-ACC players in 2010, as he joined Jarvis Jenkins (DT) and DeAndre McDaniel (S) on defense and Chris Hairston (OT) on offense. Clemson and Maryland tied for the most FirstTeam All-ACC selections. In 2009, Swinney’s first full year as head coach, he led the Tigers to their first championship of the ACC’s Atlantic Division. The Tigers came just six points short of winning their first ACC title in 18 years. Swinney was named ACC Coach-of-the-Year by Sporting News and was a finalist for the Liberty Mutual Coach-of-the-Year Award. Swinney accumulated nine wins, second-most among FBS coaches in their first full year behind Oregon’s Chip Kelly. The nine wins tied for fourth-most in ACC history for a first-year head coach. He also led the Tigers to their first bowl win since 2005 in the 21-13 victory over Kentucky in the Music City Bowl.

The Tigers reached the nine-win mark playing a schedule that included four games against top-15 opponents, just the second year in school history (1999 was the other) that Clemson played four games against teams ranked in the top 15 of the AP poll. The Tigers’ three FBS non-conference opponents had a combined record of 29-10 in 2009. Clemson gave Rose Bowlbound TCU one of its stiffest tests in a 14-10 Horned Frog victory on Sept. 26. Swinney’s first season included a six-game winning streak at midseason, a streak that saw the Tigers score 34+ points in every contest, a first in school history. During that stretch, the Tigers defeated No. 8 Miami (Fla.) on the road. The 40-37 overtime victory tied for the highest-ranked team Clemson has defeated on the road in history. That was the second of six straight wins, the longest winning streak for the Clemson program in four years. The streak also included a 40-24 win over Florida State and Bobby Bowden, the Hall of Fame coach who is first

CLEMSON ON FIELD & IN THE CLASSROOM Clemson is the only school in the nation to rank in the top 10 of APR scores (four-year averages) and in the final top 25 of both polls each of the last four years.

HEAD COACH DABO SWINNEY

in victories in FBS history. The winning streak brought Clemson to a No. 15 national ranking in the AP poll after the ACC Atlantic Division clinching victory over Virginia on Nov. 21. The Tigers had success on offense, defense and special teams during the 2009 season. They were 28th in the nation and third in the ACC in scoring offense (31.1), while the defense was 20th in total defense (314.3) and seventh in pass defense (162.8). Clemson tied for fifth in the country in interceptions (21) as well. Clemson added a school-record six kick returns for touchdowns in 2009, four on kickoff returns and two on punt returns. The main reason Clemson was so outstanding on special teams was the play of college football’s most dynamic player (Spiller) in 2009. The Tiger running back was named MVP of the ACC in 2009 and was a Consensus All-American. He had five kick returns for touchdowns during the 2009 season, an all-time Clemson record, and established the NCAA record for kickoff returns for touchdowns in a career with seven. He was also the only FBS player to score at least one touchdown in every game in 2009. Overall, the Tigers held down three positions on the All-ACC First-Team and five spots on the second team. Only Virginia Tech had more representatives. In October 2008, he was named Clemson interim head coach, replacing Tommy Bowden, who had been his position coach as a player at Alabama and was Clemson’s head coach since 1999. He led the Tigers to a 4-2 record over the remainder of the 2008 regular season, including a win over South Carolina in the regular-season finale. That strong finish led to a Gator Bowl bid against Nebraska. On Dec. 1, 2008, the interim tag was removed from the title and he was named the program’s head coach. At the time, there had been 28 interim head coaches at the FBS level since 1970 and those coaches had combined for a record of 26-86-2. Only one of those 28 interim coaches posted a winning record, and that was Swinney. When he was hired as the head coach, Swinney became just the second interim coach to be elevated to the head coach position at the same school during that time period. Swinney hit the ground running in his first week as interim head coach, as he prepared for a 5-1 Georgia Tech team. He had to reorganize his staff and regroup his team and Clemson Nation in just five days. While the Tigers lost by four points, he accomplished many goals in that first week through his outstanding leadership. One of the most impressive demonstrations of unity came during the team’s “Tiger Walk.” Prior to the game against the Yellow Jackets, Swinney decided to have his team depart buses outside the Lot 5 parking lot near the WestZone at Memorial Stadium and experience the gameday atmosphere. Dressed in jackets and ties, the team was embraced by thousands of Tiger fans who stood 10 deep for the 200-yard march to the stadium. It was the centerpiece of his “All In” theme during his first week as head coach. It is a tradition that has continued. In his second week as head coach, an off-week, he invited the Clemson student body to a practice, and nearly 1,000 students showed up. He spoke to the group and actually allowed some students to participate during practice, as they were selected to attempt a field goal, punt against a live rush and field a punt. He also took the entire team to the Greenville Children’s Hospital for a visit with young men and women fighting cancer. He has continued his community involvement through his foundation. His foundation made the first contribution to the cancer fund established for former Boston College linebacker Mark Herzlich. Many schools followed his lead the remainder of the season.

SWINNEY FOURTH IN ACC HISTORY IN WINNING % Dabo Swinney is fourth in ACC in winning percentage with a .729 mark. He is 72-26 so far in his Clemson career. He moved ahead of current Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer and former NC State coach Lou Holtz with the win over Boston College. Next on the list is Danny Ford, who won .760 of his games for Clemson between 1978-89. Swinney can’t catch Ford this year, even if he wins the rest of his games. Jimbo Fisher, Florida State’s head coach, is first on the list with a .838 percentage. WINNINGEST COACHES IN ACC HISTORY (winning percentage basis) Rk Coach School 1. Jimbo Fisher Florida State 2.

SWINNEY 8-4 VS. TOP-10 TEAMS Clemson defeated another top 10 team on December 5 when the Tigers defeated eighthranked North Carolina in the ACC Championship game. It was the second top 10 win of the year for Swinney, who is now 8-4 against top 10 teams at Clemson. It is interesting to note that Swinney has not built up this record at home. Only two of the eight wins over a top 10 team have come at home. Four have been at neutral sites and two in opponent home stadiums. Swinney will have another chance against a top 10 team when the Tigers face No. 4 Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl.

GAME 1

CLEMSON 49 WOFFORD 10 SEPT. 5, 2015 • MEMORIAL STADIUM • CLEMSON, S.C. The No. 12 Clemson Tigers improved to 7-0 in home openers under head coach Dabo Swinney with a convincing 49-10 win over Wofford Saturday in front of a crowd of 81,301 fans at Memorial Stadium. Clemson racked up 533 yards, with 222 on the ground and 311 through the air. The Tigers came out quickly, with sophomore quarterback Deshaun Watson leading an 11-play, 75-yard drive culminating with a four-yard touchdown reception by Mike Williams. During the touchdown completion, Williams hit his head against the goalpost in the east endzone. Williams suffered a neck injury and was transferred to Oconee Medical Center for further medical attention. It was determined after tests that he had a slight neck fracture. He would miss the rest of the season. Defensive coordinator Brent Venables’ unit was one of the best in the nation a year ago and, despite several starters now playing in the NFL, picked up right where it left off. Wofford did not pick up its first first down until late in the second quarter when Clemson had already accumulated 21 points, as the Tiger defense posted six consecutive three-and-outs to start the season.

Offensively, Watson led touchdown drives on the first two possessions and Clemson scored on five of its first seven drives, building a 35-0 lead. Following a miscue on a Clemson punt return, the Terriers put together a 10-play, 2:38 drive ending with a one-yard touchdown run by Chase Nelson as time expired in the first half. After halftime, Wofford drove 55 yards on eight plays to set up a 37-yard field goal by David Marvin and cut the score to 35-10. Sophomore Artavis Scott returned the ensuing kickoff 39 yards and Clemson punched in its sixth touchdown of the day with a Wayne Gallman one-yard plunge six plays later to take a commanding 42-10 lead early in the third quarter. Watson finished the day 18-22 passing for 194 yards and two touchdowns, while Gallman led all rushers with 92 yards on 14 carries and two scores. First-year freshman Ray-Ray McCloud hauled in eight catches for 80 yards and Scott added six grabs for 75 yards and a score. McCloud’s eight receptions were the most by a Clemson freshman in his first game.

CLEMSON 41 APPALACHIAN STATE 10 SEPT. 12, 2015 • MEMORIAL STADIUM • CLEMSON, S.C. A second-quarter flurry proved to be all the No. 12 Clemson Tigers needed to defeat the Appalachian State Mountaineers 41-10 on Saturday in front its secondstraight sellout crowd at Memorial Stadium. “This was a very solid win and brought us something we could learn from,” said head coach Dabo Swinney. “The fans’ energy and volume level was really feeding the defense and helped light that spark.” Deshaun Watson was 19-26 passing for 248 yards and three touchdowns. Wayne Gallman led the Tigers’ ground game with 79 of the team’s 140 rushing yards. Defensively, Shaq Lawson had three tackles for loss. The Tigers added three interceptions that completely changed their momentum, part of four takeaways for Clemson. Clemson’s defense was stout, holding Appalachian State to 298 total yards, including only 95 passing yards. In a critical moment, safety Jayron Kearse intercepted a pass in the endzone, giving the Tigers the ball and keeping Appalachian State off the scoreboard late in the first quarter. After a slow first quarter, defensive tackle Carlos Watkins intercepted a quick pass over the middle by Taylor Lamb and returned it into the endzone to score the

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

Tigers’ first touchdown. Watkins’ first career touchdown lit a fire under Clemson and started a scoring streak for the Tigers, who reeled off 35 consecutive points. On the oppositive side of the ball, defensive coordinator Brent Venebles was happy with his unit’s performance throughout the game. “Our guys were ready to play. I am really pleased at the point of attack. We knew we needed to make big plays and capitalize as a team.” The Tigers came up with their third interception by linebacker Ben Boulware. His third career interception set Deshaun Watson and the offense up for a touchdown to Charone Peake, a beautiful 24-yard pass in the second quarter. However, Peake and Watson were not done. Peake caught a 59-yard touchdown pass by Watson, his longest career reception, to score his second touchdown of the day. It was also Peake’s first-ever two-touchdown game. Shaq Lawson was named Co-Defensive Lineman of the Week by the ACC. He had three tackles for loss, including a sack in the win over the Mountaineers, who would go on to win 10 games in the regular season.

CLEMSON 20 LOUISVILLE 17 SEPT. 17, 2015 • PAPA JOHN'S CARDINAL STADIUM • LOUISVILLE, KY. Ninth-ranked Clemson outlasted Louisville, 20-17, in front of 55,396 fans, the third-largest crowd in Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium history. The win improved Clemson to 3-0 on the season, and was the program’s 30th straight victory over an unranked opponent. Clemson’s defense was outstanding all night, allowing just 272 yards of total offense to Louisville. The other story of the game was running back Wayne Gallman, who carried 24 times for 139 yards on the evening. He helped offset a pair of interceptions thrown by Deshaun Watson, who ended the night 21-30 passing for 199 yards. He added a season-best 54 on the ground. The defensive struggle was uncorked momentarily after the completion of the first quarter, when Watson found a streaking Hunter Renfrow wide open for his first career touchdown. The redshirt freshman caught the 32-yard strike to put the Tigers ahead, 7-0. The Cards cut the deficit just before the break when John Wallace connected on a 26-yard field goal. Louisville took its first lead on a Jeremy Smith oneyard plunge in the third quarter, which was set up by Watson’s second interception of the evening - his first career game with multiple picks thrown.

The Tigers responded, posting 13 consecutive points that included Watson’s 25-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jordan Leggett. His fourth career score combined with two Greg Huegel field goals to make it 20-10. Seemingly in control, the Tigers allowed a 100-yard kickoff return that gave the Cardinals life with 9:41 to play. Louisville marched into Clemson territory on its next drive, but John Wallace missed a 38-yard field goal. The Cards had another chance late, but Kevin Dodd’s eight-yard sack erased it and Louisville’s final throw was intercepted by Jadar Johnson.

CLEMSON 24 NOTRE DAME

OCT. 3, 2015 • MEMORIAL STADIUM • CLEMSON, S.C. The No. 11 Clemson Tigers battled No. 6 Notre Dame through torrential rains from Hurricane Joaquin under the lights on Saturday night. But the wet weather did not hold the Tigers back in a hard-fought 24-22 victory in front of 82,415 fans at Memorial Stadium. Head coach Dabo Swinney credited not only his team, but also the Clemson fans that showed up despite the poor weather conditions. Deshaun Watson led the Tigers to an explosive start, connecting with Jordan Leggett in the endzone on the first drive. The fire lit by Watson quickly caught on with the defense, allowing them to keep the Fighting Irish offense off the scoreboard early in the first quarter. Clemson took a 14-0 lead with another Watson touchdown, this time on a 13-yard pass to Artavis Scott. The remainder of the first half proved uneventful, but Watson came out to re-ignite the offense in the second half, running in a touchdown to put the Tigers up 21-3 early in the third quarter. His score followed the opening kickoff, where Ammon Lakip forced a fumble to give the Tigers great field position inside the Notre Dame 30. Jayron Kearse caused another fumble that was recovered by Clemson, but the Tigers couldn’t convert it.

Trailing 21-3, Notre Dame refused to give in and made the game a tense one over the final 15 minutes for Tiger fans. In three consecutive crucial moments for the Tiger defense in the fourth quarter, Clemson came away with a pair of recovered fumbles and ultimately survived on a two-point conversion stand with seven seconds remaining. The Fighting Irish had pulled within two at 24-22 on a touchdown by Torii Hunter Jr., with seven seconds left in the game, but Deshone Kizer’s designed quarterback run was stuffed by Carlos Watkins and Kevin Dodd, and Clemson survived the furious rally. Deshaun Watson accounted for three scores, while rushing for a career-high 93 yards. Wayne Gallman continued his strong start to the 2015 season, with 23 carries for 111 yards. Following the contest, Dodd was named ACC Defensive Lineman of the Week and B.J. Goodson earned ACC Linebacker of the Week honors. Dodd posted 3.5 tackles for loss, with two sacks and a forced fumble. Goodson had two takeaways in the fourth quarter, the first Tiger to do so in a game won by seven points or less since Terry Kinard, who also did it against Notre Dame, in 1979.

CLEMSON 43 GEORGIA TECH

OCT. 10, 2015 • MEMORIAL STADIUM • CLEMSON, S.C. The No. 6 Clemson Tigers battled the rain for a second consecutive week, and earned a similar result. Clemson jumped out to a big lead early, and easily defeated Georgia Tech 43-24 at Memorial Stadium. Clemson’s offense rolled to 537 yards of total offense against Georgia Tech and was led by Wayne Gallman on the ground, who finished with 13 carries for 115 yards and two touchdowns. Clemson’s win marked Gallman’s third consecutive game with over 100 rushing yards, the first Tiger to do that since Andre Ellington in 2012. Clemson’s running game put on a strong performance yet again, as the Tigers had 201 yards on the ground. Gallman provided an instant spark for the Tigers’ offense right out the gate, as he took a handoff and burst into the open field for a 66-yard touchdown run on the third play of Clemson’s opening possession. Gallman did not stop there, as he scored his second touchdown on a one-yard run late in the first quarter to cap off a 10-play, 80-yard drive that put the Tigers ahead 17-3. The tide turned for Clemson yet again, as safety Jadar Johnson blocked a punt on special teams deep in Georgia Tech territory that resulted in a safety to give the Tigers a 19-3 lead.

The Tigers’ offense was hitting on all cylinders, as quarterback Deshaun Watson followed up last week’s game with one of his best performances on the year, as the sophomore was 21-30 passing for 265 and two touchdown passes, both of which were to tight end Jordan Leggett. Leggett’s big day gave him four touchdown catches through the first five games of the season. Following the game, center Jay Guillermo was named ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week, his first such honor. Clemson’s defense came prepared for the option, as it held the Yellow Jackets, who came into the game averaging 310.6 yards per game on the ground, to 71 rushing yards. Cornerback Cordrea Tankersley nabbed his second interception of the season, while the Clemson defense finished with 11 tackles for loss. Linebacker Dorian O’Daniel and safety Jayron Kearse led the team in that category with three tackles for loss apiece.

OCT. 17, 2015 • MEMORIAL STADIUM • CLEMSON, S.C. The Clemson offense was again on full display as the No. 5 Tigers downed the Boston College Eagles 34-17 in front of 81,416 fans at Death Valley on Saturday night. The win extended the Tigers’ home winning streak to 14 to set a school record. It was also Clemson’s 34th straight win over an unranked opponent. Deshaun Watson passed for 420 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for another as the Tigers overcame the nation’s No. 1 defense. Sophomore wide receiver Artavis Scott finished with 10 receptions for 162 yards and a touchdown. The Tigers paved their way through the air against a stout Eagles secondary, as nine different Tigers caught a pass. Zac Brooks had another solid game, as he hauled in a 21-yard touchdown pass on fourth down midway through the second quarter to push the Tigers ahead 17-7. The touchdown reception was the second of Brooks’ career and his first since the Georgia game in 2013. Clemson’s ability to break down a defense and put up yards in a hurry broke through in the second half when Watson connected with Scott on a 51-yard touchdown pass to cap off a six-play, 98-yard drive to increase the Tigers’ lead to 27-10.

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

Freshman wide receiver Deon Cain had a career-high 97 receiving yards, which included a 67-yard catch and run that set up a touchdown pass to tight end Jordan Leggett to widen the Tigers’ lead 34-10. Leggett became the first Tiger tight end since 1983 to catch a touchdown pass in four consecutive games. The Tigers totaled the most rushing yards (112), passing yards (420), points (34) and total yards (532) against the vaunted Eagle defense in 2015. Following the game, several Tigers received honors. Watson was named a “Great 8” performer by the Davey O’Brien Award, while also earning ACC Offensive Back of the Week honors. Jay Guillermo was named ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week, his second straight honor. He became the first offensive lineman from Clemson to win the award in consecutive weeks since Barry Richardson did it in 2007.

CLEMSON 58 MIAMI (FLA.)

OCT. 24, 2015 • SUN LIFE STADIUM • MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. The sixth-ranked Clemson Tigers tied the program record for victory margin in an ACC game after defeating Miami by a score of 58-0 in Sun Life Stadium on Saturday. The Tigers led 42-0 at intermission, and never looked back in moving to 7-0 (4-0 in the ACC) on the season. Miami fell to 4-3 overall, 1-2 in league play. The Hurricanes finished the regular season with eight wins. Wayne Gallman and Deshaun Watson led a heavy rushing attack Saturday afternoon, as the Tigers accumulated a season-high 567 yards versus the Hurricanes. Clemson rushed for 416 yards, its highest total since 2000 against Wake Forest. Watson accounted for 241 total yards, including 98 on the ground. He was able to watch comfortably from the bench in the third quarter after the lead reached 45-0. He threw for a touchdown and scored one with his feet. Gallman ran for 118, his fourth 100-plus rushing yardage effort of 2015. The Tigers jumped out to a quick 21-0 lead in the opening quarter behind a fluid offense and suffocating defense. Watson threw a 34-yard touchdown to Jordan Leggett on the opening drive, Leggett’s tight end schoolrecord fifth straight game with a score. Watson set the

Tigers up for a second touchdown after unleashing a career-long 63-yard run that led to Gallman scoring from five yards out. The third score was put on the board when Zac Brooks got in on the action, scoring on a one-yard plunge. The Tigers duplicated the feat with 21 more points in the second frame. It culminated when Watson scampered in from six yards out, and then Cordrea Tankersley picked off the next pass and ran 36 yards for a score that pushed the advantage to 42-0. Tankersley’s pick was his third of the season, most by a Tiger in an ACC game. The second half featured a ton of young players by Clemson on both sides of the ball. Backup quarterback Kelly Bryant was a highlight, scoring on two touchdown runs to continue and build the Tiger cushion. Bryant scored on a 59-yard run, his longest of the season. Following the game, Watson was named one of eight receipients of the Manning Award Star of the Week honor, despite playing just one half and one drive against the Hurricanes.

Sophomore quarterback Deshaun Watson led the Tigers to 623 total yards, as he completed 23-30 passes for 383 yards and five touchdowns. He also added a score on the ground to match his single-game high of six set last season against North Carolina. Wayne Gallman rushed for 172 yards, his fifth game over 100 yards this season. The game got off to a bizarre back and forth start, with both teams trading two touchdowns with a blocked point-after attempt. Watson ran for a score and threw a 57-yarder to Hunter Renfrow, the latter of which tied the game at 13 just five minutes into the contest. The Tigers gained control briefly after a pair of field goals by Greg Huegel, but NC State rallied with a touchdown late in the second quarter to nudge ahead, 20-19. But the Wolfpack failed to convert a field goal late, and with less than a minute to play in the half, the Tigers made them pay.

Watson found Artavis Scott and Charone Peake open in 1-on-1 matchups on the right sideline. The completion to Peake went for 42 yards and a touchdown, giving the Tigers a 26-20 edge at halftime. Watson’s aerial show continued in the second half, as he flung a beautiful 40-yard pass to Deon Cain for the freshman’s first career touchdown that put Clemson at 40 points on the day. He followed that up with his fourth touchdown of the day, a 35-yard screen to Zac Brooks. But NC State refused to go quietly, answering with a couple of touchdowns of its own in the fourth quarter. Greg Huegel’s third field goal of the day ended the threat from the Wolfpack and put the Tigers up 15 with just under six minutes to play. Following the game, Watson was named National Offensive Player of the Week by the Walter Camp Foundation, as well as a Manning Award Star of the Week and ACC Offensive Back of the Week. Offensive tackle Joe Gore, who graded 91 percent, was named ACC Offensive Lineman-of-the-Week.

CLEMSON 23 FLORIDA STATE

NOV. 7, 2015 • MEMORIAL STADIUM • CLEMSON, S.C. The top-ranked Clemson Tigers overcame a first-half deficit to defeat No. 15 Florida State 23-13 in front of a deafening crowd of 83,099 fans at Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Clemson overcame its first halftime deficit since 2014 to capture the ACC Atlantic Division title for the first time since 2011 and improved to 9-0 on the season. A low-scoring first half left the Tigers looking for a change in fortune heading into the second half. The offense got what they were looking for early in the third quarter with a touchdown pass from Deshaun Watson to Deon Cain to put the Tigers on top 13-10. Watson set a career high in both completions (28) and passing attempts (42), as well as a career high with 107 rushing yards. Watson’s 107 yards on the ground also marked the first time a Tiger quarterback had 100+ rushing yards since Tajh Boyd ran for 127 yards versus Ohio State in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 3, 2014 (Clemson 40-35). The Tiger defense came out to make a statement after halftime adjustments, forcing two turnovers and one sack. Their efforts allowed the offense to come in and capitalize, pulling away from a 13-13 tie score thanks

to Greg Huegel’s third field goal of the game with 7:23 left in the fourth quarter. In a crucial moment, Ben Boulware and Shaq Lawson made a stop on fourth-and-one, allowing the offense to take over on the Seminole 40. Watson then made crucial plays on consecutive third downs with completions to Charone Peake, who converted both for first downs. The offense capped off their drive with a 25-yard rushing touchdown by Wayne Gallman. Boulware and B.J. Goodson worked together to cause a turnover late in the fourth quarter to give the Tiger offense possession. The offense eventually took a knee and sealed their victory. Goodson was again honored as the ACC Linebacker of the Week following the game’s conclusion, his second honor of the season. Mitch Hyatt was named ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week after grading 93 percent and playing all 84 snaps. It was the first time in school history a first-year freshman had won that honor.

CLEMSON 37 SYRACUSE 27 NOV. 14, 2015 • CARRIER DOME • SYRACUSE, N.Y. A wild first five minutes set the tone for a back and forth affair inside the Carrier Dome, but at the end of the day Clemson emerged victorious over Syracuse by a score of 37-27. The win moved the No. 1 Tigers to 10-0 on the season, giving the program their fifth consecutive 10-win season. Deshaun Watson was once again brilliant for the Tigers, accounting for a career-high 473 yards of total offense. The sophomore signal-caller threw for 368 and rushed for 105, while tossing two touchdowns and adding a third on the ground. His favorite target was Charone Peake, who had a career-high 120 yards through the air and tied another with seven grabs. Clemson got off to a fast start on the first play, when Watson unleashed a 64-yard strike to Peake. That put the Tigers inside the 10-yard-line of the Orange, and Gallman dashed in on the next play to open the scoring. Watson made it 14-0 with a quarterback keeper on a zone read following a Syracuse fumble on its first play. A pair of fumbles erased the good vibes, as Syracuse knotted the game at 14 apiece late in the opening quarter. But Watson settled the Tigers again, throwing beautiful touchdowns to Peake and freshman Deon Cain

to help Clemson push ahead 31-17 at halftime. The Orange closed the gap even further, trailing just 31-24 after the third quarter. With the crowd at a fever pitch, Clemson faced fourth-and-two on the opening play of the fourth quarter. Wayne Gallman took a pitch and ran 14 yards to the left for a first down, setting up the second of Greg Huegel’s three field goals Saturday. The freshman kicker is a perfect 15-15 in ACC games for the Tigers. Clemson ran out the clock over the final 5:57 of the game, cementing the team’s 19th win over a 20-game stretch dating to last season.

CLEMSON 33 WAKE FOREST

NOV. 21, 2015 • MEMORIAL STADIUM • CLEMSON, S.C. Top-ranked Clemson defeated Wake Forest 33-13, moving the Tigers to 11-0 for the first time since 1981. The Tigers also celebrated Senior Day and Military Appreciation Day, with special segments honoring seniors and veterans throughout the game. “I’m excited to be 11-0,” said head coach Dabo Swinney. “That’s what this senior group has done...they’ve won and made this program better and they’re leaving it better than when they came, which is what a legacy is all about. We have state championship week now and a chance to go 12-0, so we have to play our best game of the year, and we are going to prepare to do that.” The Tiger defense lit the fire early with a caused fumble by Ben Boulware, which was recovered by Shaq Lawson. Overall, the defense allowed only 152 yards of total offense. Boulware finished with 2.5 tackles for loss, despite playing only 18 snaps on defense due to a shoulder stinger. Deshaun Watson ignited the offense by completing 24-35 passes with four touchdowns in the first half. The offense totaled 552 yards, including 381 passing and 171 rushing. Watson’s yardage totals helped him again garner the ACC Offensive Back-of-the-Week honor, as

well as one of the eight awarded each week to Manning Award stars. Deon Cain joined Sammy Watkins in becoming the second first-year freshman in Clemson history to record a touchdown catch in four consecutive games. After an electric first half, the Tigers took a more relaxed approach in the second half, allowing more of their players to see action on the field. Clemson played without injured starters Wayne Gallman and Mackensie Alexander. In his place, Kelly Bryant led the Tigers in rushing with 58 yards, while C.J. Fuller added 36 yards to pace the running backs. Adrian Baker got the start at corner, finishing with four tackles in Alexander’s place. Clemson finished the ACC regular season with an 8-0 record for the first time in history.

CLEMSON 37 SOUTH CAROLINA

NOV. 28, 2015 • WILLIAMS-BRICE STADIUM • COLUMBIA, S.C. A sluggish start gave way to a flurry of points in Clemson’s 37-32 win at South Carolina, with Deshaun Watson completing 20-of-27 passes for 279 yards and rushing for an additional 114. With the victory, the Tigers remain unbeaten at 12-0, one of only two undefeated teams in the Football Bowl Subdivision, heading into next weekend’s ACC Championship Game in Charlotte. Watson was responsible for four of Clemson’s five touchdowns as he rushed for three scores and threw for one more. Fellow sophomore Wayne Gallman added 102 yards on the ground and freshman Deon Cain caught five passes for 96 yards and a 55-yard touchdown. After a scoreless first-quarter by both offenses, Clemson scored first midway through the second period when Watson capped an eight-play, 83-yard march with a five-yard touchdown plunge. The Tiger defense forced a quick three-and-out and Watson followed with a 55-yard strike to Deon Cain to extend the lead to 14-0. South Carolina drove 11 plays for 76 yards as the half closed, but the Tiger defense forced a 21-yard field goal and Clemson led 14-3 at intermission.

Watson led the offense to scoring drives on its first two possessions of the second half as Clemson claimed a 28-10 lead. But the Gamecocks closed the lead to only three points early in the fourth quarter by capitalizing on the Tigers’ third lost fumble of the day. Shon Carson scored from one yard out and Lorenzo Nunez added a two-point conversion to make the score 28-25. With momentum clearly residing on the home team sideline, Watson led a 10-play, 60-yard drive and finished it off with his third rushing touchdown of the day to extend the lead to 34-25. The Tiger defense then forced its fourth three-and-out of the day, and Clemson held the ball for 4:38 on the ensuing possession. Clemson tacked on a late field goal and South Carolina scored a touchdown with one second remaining.

CLEMSON 45 NORTH CAROLINA

DEC. 5, 2015 • BANK OF AMERICA STADIUM • CHARLOTTE, N.C. The top-ranked Clemson Tigers gave an ACC Championship Game record crowd of 74,514 a show at Bank of America Stadium. Behind the dual-threat capabilities of quarterback Deshaun Watson, the Tigers won 45-37 and moved to 13-0 on the season and secured the program’s 15th ACC Championship in its history. The lead held at 12 midway through the fourth quarter when defensive end Shaq Lawson came up with a huge forced fumble and sack that gave the Tigers possession. After tacking on a field goal, Clemson had to hang on late and recover an onside kick after the Tar Heels cut the deficit to eight points. Watson was masterful and was named the Most Valuable Player after totaling 420 yards of total offense, an ACC Championship Game record. He accounted for five touchdowns in all, three through the air and two on the ground. Wayne Gallman rushed for 187 yards, putting him just 13 yards shy of the single-season rushing record of 1,345 set by Raymond Priester in 1996. The Tigers amassed 608 yards of total offense and 33 first downs Saturday. The Tigers rushed for 319 and passed for 289. Defensively, UNC took advantage of short fields in the first half and finished just 12-35 passing as a team. North Carolina held a 9-7 lead after the first quarter. T.J. Logan escaped the backfield and was left all alone for a 46-yard catch and run for a score. His score came after the Tigers had taken a 7-3 lead, also on an easy pitch-and-catch from Watson to Gallman. Watson flipped some bad field position to open the second frame. He directed a 12-play, 96-yard drive that ended with his nine-yard rushing touchdown, his 10th on the ground this season. Deon Cain converted a key fourth down to keep the drive alive just past midfield. But UNC had an answer after Clemson failed to convert a fake punt deep in its own territory. Marquise Williams found Ryan Switzer in the end zone to put the Heels up 16-14. Somehow, despite seven penalties including a targeting call that forced the ejection of safety T.J. Green, Clemson managed a halftime advantage of 21-16. After the defense forced the Heels to a three-and-out, Watson’s arm took over. He led the Tigers on a march downfield, converting a key third down to tight end Jordan Leggett. The two then hooked up with two seconds left before halftime on a jump pass from Watson, Leggett’s seventh score of 2015. The Tigers came out inspired in the second half, sparked by Cordrea Tankersley’s fifth interception. His takeaway turned into points on a Gallman touchdown run. Clemson added on its next possession on a double move and tremendous catch on a 35-yard pass from Watson to Artavis Scott. His touchdown made it 35-16 in Clemson’s favor.

CLEMSON BOWL HISTORY

Clemson has a rich bowl tradition. The Tigers have 19 bowl wins, 17th-most in history, and their 37 bowl games are tied for 17th-most in history. Their first bowl game was in the 1940 Cotton Bowl when the Tigers defeated Frank Leahy (Boston College) 6-3. The Tigers have played in a bowl game 26 of the last 30 years (including the 2014 season). That is among the top-10 bowl appearances since 1985. Clemson has also been bowl-eligible 16 consecutive years. The Tigers have beaten some of the top programs in college football history in bowl games. The list of schools Clemson has beaten includes prominent programs Louisiana State, Miami (Fla.), Nebraska, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Penn State, Stanford, Tennessee and West Virginia. Clemson won its first three bowls (Boston College, Missouri and Miami (Fla.)). The three coaches Clemson beat were Frank Leahy, Don Faurot and Andy Gustafson, and all three are in the College Football Hall of Fame. Clemson has a football program that has been steady over the years in bowl games, no matter who has served as head coach. Seven different head coaches (Jess Neely, Frank Howard, Danny Ford, Ken Hatfield, Tommy West, Tommy Bowden, Dabo Swinney) have all been victorious in bowl games for the Tigers since the 1939 season. Nine of Clemson’s 19 bowl wins have come against head coaches who are in the College Football Hall of Fame. Clemson has four bowl wins over coaches who are in the 200-victory club. Woody Hayes of Ohio State, Tom Osborne of Nebraska, Joe Paterno and Don Nehlen are all coaches with at least 200 career victories who lost bowl games to the Tigers over the years. Clemson has achieved bowl wins over some of the greatest coaches in history: • Frank Leahy when Clemson defeated Boston College in the 1940 Cotton Bowl.

• Joe Paterno of Penn State when Clemson won 35-10 in the 1988 Citrus Bowl. It was Paterno’s largest margin of defeat in a bowl game. • Woody Hayes of Ohio State when the Tigers won 17-15 in the 1978 Gator Bowl, Hayes’ last game as a coach. • Barry Switzer of Oklahoma when Clemson won in the 1989 Citrus Bowl, Switzer’s final game as a college coach. • Tom Osborne of Nebraska when Clemson beat the Cornhuskers in the 1982 Orange Bowl, which gave Clemson its only National Championship at the end of the 1981 season. • Les Miles of Louisiana State, who led the Tigers to the 2007 National Championship, fell to Clemson 25-24 in the 2012 Chick-fil-A Bowl. • Bob Stoops, who won a national title in 2000 with Oklahoma, saw his Sooners fall 40-6 to the Tigers in the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl.

1951 ORANGE BOWL

Clemson 15 MIAMI (FLA.)

JAN. 1, 1951 • ORANGE BOWL • MIAMI, FLA. Clemson’s bid for a repeat of the 1948 perfect season ended when the Tigers had to rely on the toe of Charlie Radcliff to tie South Carolina after three season-opening shutouts. Clemson regrouped, however, with a 13-12 win at Wake Forest and then won the remaining four games by convincing margins. The Tigers’ 8-0-1 mark and second-place finish in the Southern Conference earned them a bid to play Miami (FL), who was also undefeated at 9-0-1, in the 17th Orange Bowl. After a scoreless first quarter, Clemson got on track with a 45-yard pass from Billy Hair to Bob Hudson that put the Tigers at the Miami one. Fred Cone capped the 76-yard drive with a sweep for the score and Radcliff tacked on the extra point. Clemson mounted a six-play, 70-yard drive in the third quarter for its second touchdown. Hair threw a 31-yard pass to Ray Mathews, who, as the papers said, “made a circus catch with two men on his back,” to move the Tigers to the Miami 28. Hair tossed a pass to Glenn Smith at the Miami seven and Smith scrambled in for the score. Miami caught fire two minutes later when Jack Delbello intercepted a pass in the Clemson endzone and returned

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

it to the 40, and then a 10-yard penalty was assessed the Tigers for unnecessary roughness. On the next play, Frank Smith ran a reverse for 45 yards to move to the Clemson five. Harry Mallios took a pitch from quarterback Bob Schneidenbach in for the touchdown and Gordon Watson added the conversion. Miami drove 95 yards in just five plays for its second score of the game. Ed Lutes caught a pass at midfield and rambled down to the Clemson 17 before he was stopped. On fourth down, Jack Hackett threw to Frank Smith for the score and Watson’s point put Miami in the lead for the first time, 14-13. Mallios’ 80-yard punt return was called back and two clipping infractions along with one unnecessary roughness penalty put Miami in a deep hole with six minutes left in the game. Frank Smith took a pitch-out from Hackett, but before Smith could get out of the endzone, Sterling Smith, a second-team defensive guard for Clemson, tripped him up for a safety, and Clemson led 15-14. Don Wade ended the last Miami threat with an interception, his second of the game, and Clemson ran out the clock.

clemson 21 JAN. 1, 1957 • ORANGE BOWL • MIAMI, FLA. Clemson claimed its first Atlantic Coast Conference championship in 1956 on the strength of a 4-0-1 league mark. The Tigers were 7-1-2 overall and were a surprise choice to play in the 22nd Orange Bowl, as only three weeks before their selection, the Tigers had been shut out by Miami (21-0) in the same stadium. Colorado, which was 7-2-1 and the Big-Seven runnerup, was chosen as Clemson’s opponent. After a scoreless first quarter, Colorado got on track with a seven-play, 75-yard drive. The Buffaloes’ catalyst was a 26-yard run by Bob Stransky that moved the ball to the Clemson 23. Four plays later, John “The Beast” Bayuk scored a touchdown from the two. Ellwin Indorf added the extra point. Clemson came out of the lockerroom and marched 69 yards in 15 plays to score on Joel Wells’s three-yard run. After a punt, Clemson moved to the 29 on Bob Spooner’s two runs. Three plays later, Wells ran 58 yards on a counter trap off the belly series for the Tigers’ second score. Bussey’s point after made the score 20-14 Colorado. Clemson recovered the onside kick, but the Tigers were forced to punt. Colorado then fumbled at its 11 and Tommy Sease recovered. Spooner, who had been

the workhorse on the first scoring drive, carried the ball in from the one, and with Bussey’s third extra point, Clemson led for the first time at 21-20. Although leading, Bussey attempted a second onside kick. Colorado recovered and marched 53 yards in eight plays to go ahead for good on Bayuk’s one-yard plunge. Indorf kicked the extra point and the Buffaloes led 2721. The two teams traded turnovers, and Colorado ran out the clock. Frank Howard’s threatened resignation during halftime inspired the comeback in the second half. “I told them I was going to resign if they didn’t play better in the second half. I told them I didn’t want to be associated with any team that played like that.” When Howard met Colorado Head Coach Dal Ward at midfield, Ward asked him what was the matter with his team. Howard said “I just don’t know.” Later, Howard explained that his team refused to block in the first half, but in the second half, they got down to business. He had words of praise for John Bayuk, Colorado’s fullback, and said he was as good as any that Clemson faced.

After a 13-3 win over 1980 National Champion Georgia at home, the Tigers worked their way to the number-one ranking in both wire service polls by season’s end. The win over the Cornhuskers gave Clemson the national title and its third perfect season in history. Nebraska took the kickoff, but three plays later, Tiger middle guard William Devane recovered a Mark Mauer fumble at the Nebraska 33. Quarterback Homer Jordan drove Clemson to the Nebraska 24 before the drive stalled, and Donald Igwebuike drilled a 41-yard field goal to put the ACC Champions up, 3-0. Nebraska came right back, however, as the Big Eight title holder drove 69 yards in eight plays to score on a 25-yard halfback pass from Mike Rozier to Anthony Steels. Kevin Seibel’s extra point gave Nebraska the lead at 7-3 with 6:43 to go in the first quarter After an exchange of punts, the Clemson offense moved from the Nebraska 42 yard line to the 21 to set up Igwebuike’s second field goal. The 37-yard boot narrowed the score to 7-6.

A second-quarter Phil Bates fumble gave the Tigers the ball at the Nebraska 27, and the running combination of Jordan, Kevin Mack, and Cliff Austin moved the ball to the two. Austin, who had been stuck in the hotel elevator for two hours earlier in the day, scampered in for the touchdown that gave Clemson the lead for good. On its second possession of the second half, Clemson drove 75 yards in 12 plays to score its final touchdown of the night, a 13-yard pass from Jordan to All-American receiver Perry Tuttle in the corner of the endzone. It was Tuttle’s eighth touchdown grab of the season. Bob Paulling’s extra point put the Tigers ahead, 19-7. Nebraska was down but not out, though. After a nearinterception by Johnny Rembert, Mauer engineered an eight-play, 69-yard drive that was capped by a 26-yard run by Roger Craig. After a penalty, Craig ran in the twopoint conversion from eight yards out to close the gap to 22-15 with nine minutes to play. The Clemson defense shut down the Big Red on their final extended drive, then the offense held on to the ball for over five minutes to run down the clock to six seconds. Andy Headen deflected Mauer’s desperation pass to preserve the win and the championship for Clemson.

1989 CITRUS BOWL

Clemson 13 OKLAHOMA 6 JAN. 2, 1989 • CITRUS BOWL • ORLANDO, FLA. The Tigers rang in the New Year in fine fashion with a 13-6 victory over the Oklahoma Sooners, moving into the top-10 of the final AP poll for the first time since 1982 with a No. 9 ranking. The victory also gave Danny Ford a victory over the winningest active coach in Division I, Barry Switzer. Ford defeated the top-three winningest active coaches the decade, with wins over Switzer, Tom Osborne (Nebraska) and Joe Paterno (Penn State). Although the Tigers faced a wishbone offense for the first time since Ford became head coach, the defense came through with flying colors, holding the Sooners to only 116 yards, and no touchdowns on the ground. The game was a defensive struggle, as the two teams failed to combine for 500 yards of total offense, The first five series of the first quarter ended in punts for both teams. Late in the quarter, the Sooners drove down to the Clemson one-yardline, and the Tigers defense faced a first-and-goal situation. Outside linebacker Levon Kirkland stopped the ballcarrier for no gain on first down. On second down Jesse Hatcher sacked Jamelle Holieway at the 19. After an incomplete pass, the Sooners were forced to settle for a field goal.

Doug Brewster intercepted a pass early in the second quarter to set up a 20-yard field goal by Chris Gardocki. With time running out in the first half, Gardocki put the Tigers up with another kick, this time a 46-yarder. A fumble in the third quarter gave the Sooners the opportunity to take the lead, but the Tiger defense held and R.D. Lashar hit again from 30 yards. The Tigers responded on the next series, driving 80 yards in 15 plays for the game’s only touchdown, as Terry Allen scored on a four-yard run. Allen, the game’s Most Valuable Player, rushed for 25 yards and caught two passes for 17 yards on the drive. Defensive MVP Jesse Hatcher caused and recovered a fumble on the Sooners’ next drive, but the Sooners would have one more opportunity to score. After a punt, Oklahoma drove from its own 20 to the Tiger 14, as Holieway put the secondary to the test by putting the ball in the air. On the last play of the game, Dexter Davis knocked down a pass in the endzone to seal the victory. Terry Allen was named MVP. Allen rushed for only 53 yards, his season low, but scored the game’s only touchdown and caught four passes for 47 yards to lead all Tiger receivers.

WEST VIRGINIA

CLEMSON 33 JAN. 4, 2012 • SUN LIFE STADIUM • MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. Geno Smith passed for 407 yards and six touchdowns as #22 West Virginia beat #14 Clemson 70-33 in the Discover Orange Bowl at Miami Gardens, FL on January 4, 2012. The play-of-the-game came in the second quarter with Clemson poised to regain the lead when Doug Rigg stripped the ball out of Andre Ellington’s hands as he started to fall at the Mountaineers’ one-yard line. Darwin Cook recovered the ball and raced 99 yards for a game-changing touchdown. It was the longest defensive touchdown in Orange Bowl history, which highlighted a 35-point second quarter for the Mountaineers. The Tigers never recovered after Cook’s touchdown. Although the Tigers moved within 28-20, West Virginia went on a six-play, 64-yard drive that was capped by Smith’s seven-yard touchdown run that gave the Mountaineers a 35-20 lead with 2:29 left in the first half. Trying to get some kind of momentum, Tajh Boyd, who threw for 250 yards, forced a pass on Clemson’s next possession that was intercepted by Pat Miller. Three plays later, Smith connected with Tavon Austin for a three-yard touchdown pass with 1:13 left in the first half.

2015 ORANGE BOWL GUIDE

On Clemson’s next offensive play, Boyd scrambled for eight yards, but Bruce Irvin stripped the ball before he went down and West Virginia recovered at the Tiger 18. For the third time, West Virginia took advantage of a Clemson miscue, as Shawne Alston recorded his second touchdown of the half when he rushed one yard for a touchdown with four seconds left. The Mountaineers led 49-20 at halftime. West Virginia’s 35 unanswered points came to an end late in the third quarter when Boyd hit DeAndre Hopkins, who had a team-high 10 catches for 107 yards, on a 28-yard touchdown pass. Austin tied the score 14-14 on West Virginia’s next possession when he hauled in an eight-yard pass from Smith, who set an Orange Bowl and BCS bowl game record with six touchdown passes. The Miami-area native also set an Orange Bowl record with 407 passing yards on 32-43 passing and was named game MVP. Clemson provided the final score on a four-yard touchdown run by Roderick McDowell late in the fourth quarter.

2014 ORANGE BOWL

Clemson 40 OHIO STATE

JAN. 3, 2014 • SUN LIFE STADIUM • MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. Brent Venables bristled a bit earlier in the week when he was asked about the Orange Bowl against No. 6 Ohio State being billed as a shootout. While the final score, 40-35 in favor of #11 Clemson, may have indicated that was the case, its defensive coordinator could smile afterward knowing his unit made the plays that were the difference. The Tigers forced four second-half turnovers, including a fumble and interception on the Buckeyes’ last two possessions, to rally from a halftime deficit for a BCS bowl win and a second-straight 11-win season, both firsts in school history. Stephone Anthony’s interception with 1:18 left sealed the win after Clemson had turned the ball over on the previous possession to give Ohio State an opening. That came after a Spencer Shuey recovered fumble on the previous Buckeyes’ drive that put the Tigers in the driver’s seat. It was not all defense for Clemson, as Sammy Watkins set Tiger and Orange Bowl records with 16 catches and 227 receiving yards to garner MVP honors, and Tajh Boyd accounted for 505 yards of total offense and six scores.

Watkins, who had eight catches for 130 yards in the first half, passed Aaron Kelly to become the school’s all-time leader in receptions with his first grab of the second half, which gave him 233 for his career. For Boyd, he moved into a tie with Rodney Williams (1985-88) for most wins in school history by a starting quarterback with 32 and also set the record for most wins over top-25 ranked teams with eight, including five victories over top-10 foes. Stanton Seckinger put Clemson ahead for good with a five-yard catch with 6:16 left in the game, and Shuey and Anthony’s takeaways finished Ohio State off. Clemson finally got the break it had been so desperately seeking after its offense had been forced to punt on the next drive, as Corey Brown muffed a punt and Robert Smith was there to recover the loose ball at the Ohio State 33. The Tigers cashed in three plays later, as Watkins went up and made an acrobatic catch in the endzone for a 30-yard touchdown that narrowed Ohio State’s lead to 29-27. Watkins tied Clemson’s career record for touchdown catches with his 27th on the play.

2014 RUSSELL ATHLETIC BOWL

Clemson 40

OKLAHOMA 6 DEC. 29, 2014 • RUSSELL ATHLETIC BOWL • ORLANDO, FLA. Three-point underdog before the game, 34-point victor after. The No. 18 Clemson Tigers dominated all aspects of the Russell Athletic Bowl in an impressive 40-6 victory over the favored and No. 24 Oklahoma Sooners at Orlando, Fla. For the Tigers and Head Coach Dabo Swinney, the victory marked a third straight year with an impressive bowl win against a storied opponent. Clemson defeated Louisiana State and Head Coach Les Miles in the 2012 Chick-fil-A Bowl, Ohio State and Head Coach Urban Meyer in the 2014 Orange Bowl (at the end of the 2013 season) and Oklahoma and Head Coach Bob Stoops in the 2014 Russell Athletic Bowl. The win also gave the Clemson senior class 42 victories from 2011-14, extending its school record. The Tigers have recorded four straight seasons with doubledigit wins, one of only four FBS programs who can make that claim along with Alabama, Northern Illinois and Oregon. Senior Cole Stoudt was named game MVP, a nice end to the quarterback’s season and career at Clemson. He finished with a career-high 319 yards and three

touchdowns against no interceptions on 26-36 passing and added a rushing touchdown. Artavis Scott had eight receptions for a game-high 114 yards and one touchdown, while Mike Williams added a game-high nine catches for 112 yards and a touchdown. It marked the first time Clemson had two 100-yard receivers in a bowl game. Scott started the scoring when he took a screen pass 65 yards for a touchdown on Clemson’s first offensive play of the game. The Tigers’ top-ranked defense did not disappoint, forcing five turnovers and holding Oklahoma to 275 yards and a lone score in the fourth quarter. Defensively, Korrin Wiggins had a team-tying-high six tackles and an interception. Ben Boulware had a 47-yard interception return for a touchdown and recovered a fumble. Grady Jarrett added 3.5 tackles for loss, while Vic Beasley had three tackles for loss. In their first game as co-offensive coordinators, Tony Elliott and Jeff Scott put together a gameplan that resulted in 40 points.
