No bones about
it, Clemson was one of the youngest
top rated teams out there in
the National Championship quest
of 2015. Ergo, the depth chart
is loaded with returning All-American
and All-Conference honorees.
When you toss in a quarterback
who was a Heisman finalist,
Clemson has the definite makings
for another undefeated run.
These Tigers are poised to possess
the most explosive offense in
the county. If they aren't the
No. 1 preseason team heading
into next fall, they will likely
be No. 2. Dabo Swinney is on
the verge of finally making
Clemson a year-in and year-out
contender just as FSU has managed
to do all these decades in the
ACC. |
