There’s a reason why Clemson pulls some of the top talent out of Florida

Clemson likes playing in the state of Florida.

Why?

Since losing a heartbreaker in overtime to Florida State back in 2014, the Tigers have won six straight games in the Sunshine State, including the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship Game in Tampa.

Clemson, who travels to Tallahassee on Saturday to play ACC Atlantic Division rival Florida State, has defeated some big names in college football during the streak. The Tigers have beaten Oklahoma twice, Miami, Virginia Tech and Alabama in the state of Florida. They have also defeated Saturday’s opponent, Florida State, in a dramatic come-from-behind win at Doak Campbell Stadium in 2016.
