CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) – Clemson’s almost done with the killer stretch coach Dabo Swinney called the “schedule of champions.” Right now, it’s the Tigers who’ve stood tallest of all.
Clemson improved to 4-0 for the first time in four years with a 35-30 victory over Florida State and rose eight spots in the national rankings to No. 13. It’s been a surprising run for the Tigers, who knocked off defending national champion Auburn (38-24) two games ago before beating the ACC Atlantic winning Seminoles.
Clemson opened the year with Sun Belt champ Troy and Southern Conference co-champions Wofford its first two games. Next up comes ACC champion Virginia Tech, a school the Tigers haven’t beaten since 1989 when Swinney was a college freshman dreaming of catching passes for Alabama.
