Clemson added two quick scores, within 1:35 of each other, to pull within 2 before halftime. The teams exchanged the lead three times throughout the second half. After Clemson scored to make it 29\u201323, Ohio State had one last chance to take the lead.

This was Clemson’s second appearance in the Fiesta Bowl; they defeated Ohio State in the December 2016 edition.Game summary[edit]First quarter[edit]Clemson won the coin toss, and deferred possession to the second half, giving Ohio State the opening kickoff. Ohio State’s offense started strong and following a difficult catch by Garrett Wilson would find themselves at the 5 yard line but would be unable to reach the endzone settling for a Blake Haubeil field goal to take a 3\u20130 lead. On their first possession Clemson would drive to Ohio State’s 32 before attempting a field goal that sailed wide left, keeping the score at 3\u20130. On the first play on the ensuing drive Ohio State’s J.K. Dobbins broke free for a 68-yard touchdown run to give the Buckeyes a 10\u20130 lead. On the next drive Clemson would drive into Ohio State territory before stalling out and punting the ball to Ohio State, pinning the Buckeyes at their own 9-yard line. On their next possession, Ohio State would gain just 9 yards and would punt. Clemson’s offense would fail to capitalize on the strong field position, going three and out and punting the ball for a touchback. Ohio State started their drive on their 25 and were soon faced with a 3rd and 2. On 3rd down and the final play of the quarter Dobbins would once again break free for a big run, running 64 yards to Clemson’s 8 yard line before Tanner Muse made a shoestring tackle to prevent a touchdown.Second quarter[edit]Ohio State began the quarter with a 1st and goal on the Clemson 8 yard line and were soon faced with a 3rd and goal. On 3rd down, Dobbins swung out to the flat and appeared to catch a touchdown from Justin Fields, however upon video review it was ruled that Dobbins failed to make the catch, forcing Ohio State to once again settle for a field goal inside Clemson’s 10 yard line, making the score 13\u20130. Following the Ohio State’s score Clemson’s offense would once again struggle, going 3 and out and punting. Ohio State would then drive 78 yards to Clemson’s 11 yard line before kicking a field goal; their 3rd field goal inside the red zone, to make the score 16\u20130. On the ensuing drive Clemson would drive to the Ohio State 45, following a failed 3rd down conversion Clemson’s drive would stay alive on a Shaun Wade targeting penalty. Clemson would take advantage of this penalty with a Travis Etienne touchdown rush to cut the lead to 16\u20137 with 2:45 remaining in the half. Ohio State would then go 3 and out, punting the ball back to Clemson. On the third play of the drive, Trevor Lawerence would elude defenders running 67 yards for a touchdown, Clemson’s second in less than 2 minutes to make the score 16\u201314 at the half.Third quarter[edit]The two teams exchanged punts on their opening second half drives, with Ohio State’s Drue Chrisman pinning Clemson at their own 1 yard line. Clemson would pick up a first down but were soon forced to punt. On the punt Ohio State would send pressure in an attempt to block the punt but would rough the punter and give Clemson a new set of downs. Two plays later Lawrence would connect with Etienne on a screen pass who then ran through defenders for a touchdown to make the score 21\u201316. Ohio State would lose yards on their next possession and were forced to punt. On the next drive, following a sack on Trevor Lawerence Clemson was faced with a 3rd and 19. Lawrence would throw a pass to Justyn Ross who corralled the ball before it was jarred loose by Jeff Okudah, Ohio State would pick the ball up and run to the end zone. The referees and later video review would rule that Ross failed to establish possession of the ball before it was stripped negating an Ohio State touchdown that would have occurred if the play had been ruled a catch and fumble. Avoiding disaster Clemson would punt the ball. On the following drive Isaiah Simmons would intercept a Justin Fields pass; the games first turnover. Clemson would fail to capitalize on the turnover, going three and out. Ohio State would then drive 16 yards to their 32-yard line as the quarter ended with Clemson leading 21\u201316.Fourth quarter[edit]Ohio State began the third quarter facing a 3rd and 9. Fields would find Dobbins for 11 yards for the 3rd down conversion. Ohio State would drive to the Clemson 23 before being faced with a 4th down and 2 and elected to go for it. Fields would throw a bullet pass to Chris Olave in the end zone for a touchdown to take a 23\u201321 lead. Following a Clemson punt Ohio State would drive 50 yards to the Clemson 39 before being forced to punt, pinning Clemson on the 6. Clemson began their next drive on their own 6 yard line with 3:07 remaining in the game. Clemson would march 94 yards in just 4 plays capped of by a 32-yard touchdown reception from Etienne to retake the lead. Following a two point conversion, Clemson would hold a 29\u201323 lead with 1:49 remaining. Ohio State would then drive to the Clemson 23 with 43 seconds left. On the next play Ohio State had Olave one-on-one with Clemson cornerback Nolan Turner. Olave would run a post route as Fields threw the ball to the middle of the end zone. Olave with his back to Fields thus not knowing the ball had been thrown would option to corner route as he believed Fields was scrambling.[6] Turner who was facing Fields was able to track the ball for an easy interception in the end zone, all but ending the game. On the next play Clemson would take a knee to end the game 29\u201323.College Football Playoff Semifinal at the PlayStation Fiesta BowlPeriod1234TotalNo. 3 Clemson0147829No. 2 Ohio State1060723at State Farm Stadium \u2022 Glendale, ArizonaGame informationFirst Quarter(12:03) OHST \u2013 Blake Haubeil 21 yard field goal (Drive: 10 plays, 71 yards, 2:57; Ohio State 3\u20130)(8:35) OHST \u2013 J.
