The Clemson Tigers came into the season as the odds-on favorite to win the ACC and make the College Football Playoff. The probability of both happening took a significant hit with Clemson’s 24-21 loss against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets on Saturday.
Ironically, Georgia Tech hit a game-winning field goal as time expired, the same score as the FSU game last year when they defeated the Noles in the season opener.
FSU fans felt confident after Clemson’s season-opening loss against LSU. It was a close game, and weird things happen in season openers. However, the eyebrows started to raise once Clemson trailed Troy at home at halftime last week.
