The Troy football team fell to Clemson in a tough matchup that kept fans of both teams on the edges of their seats until the end.
The Trojans (1-1, 0-0 Sun Belt) traveled to Death Valley to take on the No. 2-ranked Tigers (2-0, 0-0 ACC), only the third time in school history that Troy matched up against a top-3 team. The Tigers escaped by a touchdown’s margin, 30-24.
“Our players competed and fought right down to the very end,” Head Coach Neal Brown said after the game.
