During a historic season for Clemson football, the Tigers' DL was a huge reason for why Clemson was so successful.
While it didn't end the way we wanted, 2015 was a special season. Looking back at the preseason and early season, I don't know too many people outside of the program that actually believed we'd be sitting here in January with 14 wins and a gritty, 5 point loss against Alabama in the National Championship. This was truly a historic season for Clemson, and, as Coach Swinney says, "the best is yet to come." One of the reasons this season came as such a surprise to a lot of people is because of the question marks Clemson had coming in, especially on a defense that was #1 in the nation in 2014.
