Clemson is headed to its second straight national championship game and fourth in the last five years after disposing of Ohio State with a 29-23 victory in the College Football Playoff semifinal at the Fiesta Bowl on Saturday.

After the game, The Clemson Insider reached out to a number of Clemson recruits for their reaction to the Tigers’ big win and return to the natty:

Clemson signee Sage Ennis, 2020 TE, Tallahassee, Fla. (Lincoln): “Great win! All year people have said that Clemson has played no one and that they can’t beat a high-caliber team.

Clemson signee Trent Howard, 2020 OL, Birmingham, Ala. (Briarwood Christian): “Absolutely awesome! Things don’t happen by accident! They have put so much hard work into it! Go Tigers!!”

Clemson signee Walker Parks, 2020 OL, Lexington, Ky. (Frederick Douglass): “Me and Bryn (Tucker) were watching the game and I think we woke the entire hotel up by yelling and dancing. That last drive was pure ass kicking. I look up to Sean Pollard and John Simpson, they’ve been good to me when I’ve been to camp and around the place. They deserve every bit of it. I can’t wait to watch it.”
