Why they’re ranked here: You’ve heard of “Clemsoning,” right? As much as Dabo Swinney has rightfully tried to get rid of that term in recent seasons, Clemsoning (losing games you shouldn’t, crushing your fans hopes in heartbreaking fashion) is something that happened far too often over the last 10 years. This fan base deserves to win something that will get rid of that term forever. That something is a national championship – no fan base deserves it more.
It’s been far too long since the Tigers won one, too. Clemson is one of the country’s premier programs – it’s got an awesome stadium, great uniforms, really solid history and has produced a ton of great talent. A 30-plus year stretch without a national championship is way too long for this fan base, which year in and year out puts the Tigers in the top 15 nationally in attendance.
A national championship by Clemson could result in Tigers’ fans rushing the field (they love to do that more than any other fan base) and some dancing from Dabo Swinney. If that doesn’t make Clemson’s fan base deserving of a national title, what does?
As an Oklahoma fan, I respect Clemson and did even before the beatdown in Orlando last year. I see a lot of similarities between the schools , actually. Mostly in regards to the fan base and game day atmosphere. Having been to many games in Norman and probably more at Death Valley, where i go to support my Clemson buddy, I find the fans are well behaved, courteous to the opposing fans and , ofcourse, loud. I certainly hope my boys get a shot at the playoffs this year, seeing all the positive coaching and player changes we’ve gone through since that horrible performance in Orlando, but I also really hope Clemson goes into the playoffs as well. If my boys can’t win it, I can’t see another team with as much class and as many good people as Clemson right now.
Listening to the players in interviews and watching the passion the Clemson players and coaches have, is impressive. I would love to see a rematch this year, but unfortunately I don’t see a 1 loss Big 12 team getting invited. Good luck Tigers.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Great helmet. Uniforms are uglier than a pug's face.
