LSU won the 2019 National Championship and is without a doubt the best team in the country. However, Clemson holds the title as the best program in the country.
Clemson’s loss to LSU was the program’s first since the 2017 season when it lost to Alabama in the 2018 Sugar Bowl. In between, the Tigers won an ACC tying 29 games in row, which is tied with 2012-14 Florida State, 1990-93 Miami (Fla.) and 1901-03 Michigan for the 12th-longest in FBS history.
Clemson’s seniors conclude their careers 55-4 over the last four seasons, tied with the 2018 Clemson and Alabama seniors for the most wins in a four-year career in FBS history.
