Clemson football earned its doughnuts vs. Wake Forest – and yes it was sweet

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – There would be Krispy Kreme doughnuts in the Clemson locker room Saturday afternoon, after all.

It has been a longstanding tradition for the Clemson football team to be treated to the Winston-Salem-born confections each and every time the Tigers notched a victory at Wake Forest.

The Demon Deacons tried to put an end to that party on Saturday, pushing the Tigers to two overtime periods before Clemson somehow, some way emerged with an improbable 51-45 victory in double overtime.
