Sammy Watkins caught a school record 16 passes for a school record 227 yards and two touchdowns as No. 12 Clemson rallied to beat No. 7 Ohio State, 40-35, in the 2014 Orange Bowl Classic.
The Orange Bowl win concluded a second straight 11-2 season for the Tigers, the first time the program recorded back-to-back 11-win seasons. Clemson finished the 2013 season ranked No. 8 in the final AP Poll.
