So where does Wiggins play rank

In greatest defensive plays in Clemson history?
What are the others that comparable?
Gaines TD vs Wake? (I’d probably rank this #1)
Rahim Abdullah’s fumble returns in the late 90s?
Chester’s sack, forced fumble, recovery and TD on Major Harris?
Wayne simmons TD vs FSU?
Ranks up there in my opinion, but was it the best?
What great ones have I missed?

Mike Williams run down after a DW4 pick in the end zone against Pitt is the best

I’ve seen. Granted, the game was a loss which takes the shine off of it, but for 1 specific play, it was hard to beat.

Clemson just scored a TD to go up 20-0 at VT. VT then returned the kickoff for a TD. Clemson then fumbled their kickoff, then Levon Kirkland got a pick 6. I've never heard a crowd be so loud, then go so quiet so fast.
The madness starts at 1:37:21

James quick Louisville 2014 clemson up 23-17 1:08 left in the game. 73 yard play run down by a Clemson safety on the 8 yard line(I think was Kearse).

Didn’t see this until after I posted. My mind immediately went to that play.

Defensive genius. He knew what Petrino was gonna do because he saw him run the play he ran against us in a two year old game when he was the head coach of western Kentucky. Dude’s a freak.

And the ND rain game stop. Venables always seemed to know exactly what play call the other team would lean on when needed. The UNC stop where XT got Sam Howell. Incredible.
Go Tigers!

XT sack of Dungey to end the Syracuse game.
AJ Terrell pick six on Tua was great.
Marcus Edmond (?) with the game sealing INT in the NC State missed FG game was awesome.
DeAndre McDaniel pointing at Ponder after the INT and then bringing the pain was awesome!
Go Tigers!

After posting I realized that I had left off the Lott/Beasley safety against UGA in 87.

near the end of the game and gets punched by Woody Hayes.

Also:
K'Von Wallace had a similar play as Wiggins vs Texas A&M 2018 when he knocked the ball out of the receiver's hands at the goal line and caused a touchback to preserve the lead late in the game .
Trayvon Mullen had the long interception and return in the 2018 NC game vs Alabama and also had the 3rd down sack on Tua.

Yeah, but Muse’s rundown and shoestring tackle of JK Dobbins in the same game was HUGE.
