Clemson extended their win streak over NC State to seven, and it was wholly glorious for the Tiger faithful. The Tigers had won seven straight before a 2011 upset in Raleigh and now they’ve again matched the mark which is the longest win streak in the rivalry.
With the Tigers claiming 14 of the last 15 Textile Bowls and posting a .672 win percentage against NC State all time (even better than the Tigers .617 win percentage in the Palmetto Bowl), it may be time to to stop the “NC State always gives Clemson a hard time” narrative and start the “NC State can hardly ever manage to pull out a win against Clemson” narrative.
