Finding themselves down 14-7 in the first quarter of the Sugar Bowl, Ohio State got their first big passing play of the game. After running the ball effectively, it was the perfect time for a play-action pass play.
And the play worked to perfection with the defense getting sucked in on the fake to Trey Sermon as Garrett Wilson broke free streaking up the sideline. Fields pass was thrown just a bit out in front of Wilson, but No. 5 stretched out to make a spectacular catch.
Watch below as Fields lures the Clemson defense in, stands tall in the pocket, and delivers a dime to a diving Wilson.
Clemson is without their starting safety for the first half. This was a matchup the Buckeyes could and should take advantage of if they can. https://t.co/apwTF5UolV
