What happened

ESPN RECAP

Clemson freshman QB Watson has 6 TDs in 50-35 win

CLEMSON, S.C. -- Freshman Deshaun Watson threw for 435 yards and set a school record with six touchdown passes in his first ever start to lead Clemson to a 50-35 win over North Carolina on Saturday night. The Tigers (2-2, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) decided Watson's time had come, and the 19-year-old didn't shrink in the spotlight. Watson completed 27 of his 36 passes. He also ran 11 times for 28 yards. Watson's six TDs tied the ACC record and only Tajh Boyd has thrown for more yards in a game for Clemson. North Carolina (2-2, 0-1) gave up 528 yards, and has allowed its opponent to gain more than 500 yards in the past three games. Mike Williams had six catches for 122 yards and two touchdowns for Clemson, which has scored 49 or more points in five of its last 10 ACC games.
