Timeout. Clemson played their second string players in a CFP game. Let that sink in.
But wasn’t that game fun? I don’t know that there’s a team in America that embraces the underdog role better than Clemson. The worst thing someone can do is tell that team that they aren’t as good as someone else. Think about the last two years; Florida State, Notre Dame, Oklahoma (lol), Louisville, Ohio State, and now Alabama twice.
Last year, the National Championship was one of the best football games I’ve ever witnessed. We saw the wit of Nick Saban against the youth and creativity of Dabo Swinney.
