CLEMSON – It hasn’t been a secret that the Clemson football program has been on a fast track to the College Football Playoff this season, but the defense that showed up Saturday night in Death Valley won’t win any national championships.
Following No. 2 Clemson’s 56-35 victory over South Carolina Saturday in Death Valley, assorted members of the media walked down the long hill towards the interview area near the visitors’ tunnel. A group of Clemson fans walking in front of us were in the midst of celebrating the win, but one member stood off to the side, a disgusted look on his face.
