After watching the Tigers fall to the Crimson Tide of Alabama last year in the semifinals of the College Football Playoff, Clemson will get a chance at a rematch with the Tide.

It’s Dabo Swinney vs. Nick Saban. It’s Tua vs. Trevor Lawrence. It’s that vaunted Tiger defensive line against that physical Bama offensive line. It’s everything we’ve been wanting all season from a Clemson perspective and the time has finally come.
