UNC wide receiver Dwight Jones made some headlines last week when he declared that he was the best wide receiver in the ACC. At the time, Jones’ comments were considered a direct shot at Clemson freshmen sensation Sammy Watkins. Watkins delivered an emphatic response on the field, catching eight balls for 91 yards and a touchdown, while Jones was held to just two catches for 16 yards. (ACC Sports Journal)
