4. Tigers are starting to be disrespected, at least a little bit

No one’s out there saying that Clemson isn’t a CFB Playoff team or that the Tigers aren’t as good as we thought originally.

That being said, we’re seeing more and more analysts bump Alabama and Ohio State ahead of the Tigers and, in some cases, Clemson is becoming an afterthought.

Sound familiar? It only seems to happen every single year.

This program plays its best when it has some type of disrespect to feed upon- even if it’s ever so slight and sometimes nonexistent- and they’re beginning to have that, especially coming off the close game against Boston College.
