ESPN analyst wonders if complacency will prevent Clemson from making CFP

ESPN college football analyst Dan Orlovsky believes another Clemson vs. Alabama national championship game is almost inevitable. However, there are a few storylines he says the Tigers need to be aware of if they want to hold up their end of the bargain.

Orlovsky believes Clemson’s Week 2 game against Texas A&M in Death Valley and then its Week 3 contest at Syracuse the following week are potential stumbling blocks that could prevent the defending national champions from getting back to the College Football Playoff for a fifth straight year.

There is another factor the former college and NFL quarterback says the Tigers have to be leery of as well.
