After losing last year’s Sugar Bowl to Alabama, Clemson defensive end Clelin Ferrell asked God to give him and his teammates one more opportunity to win a championship at Clemson.
“When you pray for things, God does not just give them to you, he gives you the opportunity to do them,” the All-American and ACC Defensive Player of the Year said during Clemson’s National Championship Parade and Celebration Saturday at Death Valley.
Clemson definitely took advantage of its opportunities. The Tigers went 15-0 this season, the first team in the modern era of major college football to do such.
