The Clemson football team came up short for the first time in 30 tries Monday night when the Tigers fell 42-25 to the LSU Tigers in the National Title game.
LSU QB Joe Burrow and that offense was near unstoppable. Though Brent Venables dialed up pressure and had a good scheme, Burrow just seemed to place nearly every single throw on the money- in tight windows- which made things extremely difficult on the Clemson secondary.
Though the defense had its struggles, the unit still came away with enough stops to keep the Tigers competitive.
