CLEMSON – This time last year, everyone wondered if Dabo Swinney still had it as a head coach. In fact, one national writer placed Swinney outside the top 5 in his rankings of the nation’s best head coaches in college football.
People said Florida State was the new King of the ACC and that the Tigers’ run of dominating the conference for over a decade was over.
Shows you what they know.
The Seminoles went from first to worst in 2024, while Clemson claimed its throne as the King of the ACC once again and returned to the College Football Playoff for the first time since 2020.
