Clemson wide receiver Artavis Scott was named ACC Receiver of the Week for his performance in the Tigers’ 73-7 victory over S.C. State this past Saturday.
Scott had six catches for 164 yards and two touchdowns. The 164 yards established the Clemson freshman single-game record for receiving yards, breaking the previous mark of 155 set by Sammy Watkins against Auburn in 2011.
Scott’s touchdowns came on a 37-yard pass from Cole Stoudt and an 8-yard strike from Deshaun Watson. Scott and Stoudt also hooked up on a 69-yard completion. Scott’s reception yardage total ranked fourth best in college football for the weekend.
