Stat changes - No INT for Boyd


by -

From Clemson SID:

There are two changes to the statistics from Saturday’s game.

Sammy WatkinsSammy Watkins

Fr. Wide Receiver

#7 6-1, 200

Fort Myers, FL

View Full Profile should have one less reception. He was credited with a catch when he was grabbed by the facemask. Since he did not gain any yardage on the play, there is no catch. Had he gained a yard or more, he would have been credited with a catch. Thus he finished the game with 7-141 receiving.

RS So. Quarterback

#10 6-1, 225

Hampton, VA

View Full Profile ’s interception that was returned for a touchdown, it is clear the ball went backwards and thus is a fumble, not a pass. You can see the play on ESPN3 at the 1 hour 58 minute mark of the tape. He released the ball at the 25 just before his knee touches and the FSU player catches the ball on the run at the 24. Since the ball went backwards it is not a forward pass and thus has to be ruled a fumble.

With these two changes, Boyd is 22-35 for 344 yards and three touchdowns for his stat line in the game.
