BATON ROUGE, La. — When Tait Reynolds envisioned his first playing time as a college quarterback, it is doubtful he imagined what happened to him and the Clemson Tigers on Saturday night.
The highly touted freshman from Arizona made his college debut late in the second quarter of Clemson’s 51-10 loss to No. 11 LSU at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, La.
First off, he came into the game with the Tigers already down 31-3 with 1:10 to play before halftime.
His first collegiate throw was a 7-yard completion to Tyler Brown. On second down-and-three, he was sacked for a six-yard loss and on third down he threw a ball intended for T.J. Moore into the dirt. It was all down hill from their.
Reynolds was sacked three times and finished the game with minus-9 yards on the ground. He also completed 4-of-6 passes for 22 yards.
