The direction of the Clemson football program is not what it was just a little more than a decade ago. As a result, the Tigers had several times where they were beaten soundly by other programs or just couldn’t come up with key wins when they needed to.
This is epitomized in the rivalry between the Tigers and the Florida State Seminoles.
Florida State leads the overall series 20-12, but the Tigers are currently on a four-game winning streak.
Because of the success that Dabo Swinney has had in building the Clemson football program, it seems that many Tiger fans have forgotten that you don’t have to look too far back to find a time that Florida State was absolutely dominating Clemson on the field.
