A few years ago, Clemson became the first team in Football Bowl Subdivision to go 15-0.
Clemson, in keeping with Dabo Swinney’s modus operandi — I have $10 via the medium of choice for whomever asks Dabo what that phrase means, by the way — made a huge deal of this that only sort of caught on, only for LSU to go 15-0 one year later, putting all of 2018 Clemson’s previous accomplishments in a different light.
(It’s sort of like how Florida men’s basketball went 18-0 in SEC play in 2014 only to have Kentucky do so a year later, except that Florida did so without an NBA player in its starting five, while Kentucky had 10 rostered and kept the best one on its bench.
