1. Five-straight conference titles

This is a big deal, whether Clemson football fans realize it or not.

Though the ACC Championship game has been taken a bit for granted as of late by Tiger fans, it’s still a big milestone for Clemson and is a program goal each season.

There was a time not so long ago that Clemson football fans would’ve given anything just to win a conference title. Now, it seems like it’s just a given that the Tigers will come away with the trophy.

Clemson has 18 ACC Championships in program history, but is currently on the longest conference winning streak in its history. Before this streak of four-straight, the longest conference winning streak for the Tigers was three- which was achieved in 1965-67, as well as in 1986-88.
