CLEMSON – Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has never been afraid to state his opinion, and there are times when he comes under fire for his beliefs. But most Clemson fans who watched last season have to agree with his Wednesday sentiments that last year’s 10-win team overachieved.
The Tigers finished the season with a 10-3 record and now have an 11-year streak of 10-win seasons. The program also has the nation’s longest home winning streak (34 games) and the Power Five’s longest active winning streak (six).
However, 2021 was never easy as the Tigers faced a perfect storm of injuries, attrition, adversity and inexperience in key positions.
