Deshaun Watson shined in his starting debut throwing for a school-record six touchdowns against North Carolina. A true freshman, Watson nearly eclipsed Tajh Boyd’s single game passing record (447) and his performance put the Tigers up 53-35 against a Tar Heel defense that gave up 70 points against East Carolina and 500 yards in two previous weeks.
“We have a lot more coming from No. 4,” Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said of Watson after the game.
