Clemson’s win over Ohio State last week meant a lot to the Clemson football program for a number of reasons.
First of all, it advanced the Tigers to the College Football Playoff National Championship, where they will play LSU for an opportunity to win a second straight national championship. The win over the Buckeyes also proved a point to all the skeptics. It proved the 2019 Tigers are just as good as the other Clemson teams the program has produced the last five years.
All year, the Tigers were bashed by the national media and rival fans about their schedule.
