Dabo Swinney and the Tigers have been on a roll in November, winning four straight, including their recent 16-7 rivalry win over South Carolina.
Clemson (8-4, 4-4 ACC) may be on a tear, but that tear wasn’t enough to get the Tigers ranked in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll. While Clemson didn’t look fantastic in the win over South Carolina, agreeing with them being left off the rankings is tough.
The Tigers are receiving votes, with the second most of unranked teams (64), right behind the Toledo Rockets (68). Clemson’s regular season is now over, as the team waits to hear what bowl game they will head to, which gets announced on Sunday, Dec. 3.
