CLEMSON – Clemson didn’t wear orange britches for Saturday’s home game against Wake Forest but head coach Dabo Swinney called the game a championship game and he didn’t want to see the Demon Deacons celebrate a championship on the Tigers’ home field.
Clemson defeated Wake Forest 48-27 Saturday, meaning the Demon Deacons will have to wait a week to try and clinch the ACC Atlantic Division title. The Tigers are mathematically still alive, but need UNC to beat NC State next Friday and Boston College to defeat Wake next Saturday.
Clemson’s senior class finishes 26-0 at home in the last four years and becomes the second straight senior class to go undefeated at home in a four-year span.
