Clemson fans went wild for the team’s victory in the College Football Playoff National Championship game.

On Monday night, Clemson and Alabama would go to battle in a hard-fought College Football Playoff National Championship Game. This did not see much offense for the majority of the game, but saw an explosion of touchdowns in the latter minutes of the evening. Quarterbacks Deshaun Watson and Jalen Hurts led their respective teams down the field, making for a wild finish as the game closed.

In the end, it would be the Tigers walking out as the champions after Watson hit Hunter Renfrow for a two-yard touchdown with just one second left on the game clock. After a recovered short kick and a taking a knee, Dabo Swinney would officially accomplish his first-ever National Championship victory.

The reaction would be boisterous from Clemson fans, who took to Twitter to celebrate the 2017 College Football National Championship game.

The support for Clemson seemed strong as they walked out with a title win over the top-ranked Alabama team. It is something they will celebrate into the night and for quite a while in South Carolina.

The game would see Watson and Gallman step up late with one touchdown apiece. The former even tallied up over 400 passing yards and four total scores to lead the way for Clemson and give them the victory at Raymond James Stadium.

This game will go down in the history books for the final quarter with the back and forth scoring, the big moments, and the final touchdown from Watson to Renfrow to give them the win. It solidified the win and made them champions of this season of college football.
