There have been a lot of good moments during the Super Bowl’s 52-year history involving Clemson players.
The first one that comes to my mind is Super Bowl XIV when former Tiger Bennie Cunningham, Clemson’s first two-time All-American, was the lead blocker that sprung Franco Harris into the end zone for the Pittsburgh Steelers’ first touchdown in their win over the Los Angeles Rams.
Then there is Levon Kirkland’s sack of Troy Aikman in Super Bowl XXX that gave the ball back to the Steelers with a chance to beat the Dallas Cowboys. Unfortunately, the Cowboys won the game, but Kirkland, considered the best linebacker in the game at the time, played his best game as a Steeler.
