1. Sixth-straight CFB Playoff appearance

I’ve written my fair share of posts talking about the disappointments of the last two CFB Playoff appearances.

There’s no doubt in mind Clemson has to get better and the program has to continue to evolve. You can’t give up nearly 50 points twice-in-a-row in postseason games and not score over 30 points and still expect to garner the respect of the nation.

There’s plenty we can say on the disappointment of the outcome, but just to be there should have Clemson football fans showing a little gratitude.

I’m not saying you should go out and buy t-shirts, but we should still recognize that there 100+ other programs across the nation that would be absolutely ecstatic to be where Clemson is currently.

There is hope as the 2021 offseason gets underway and there’s nothing stopping this program from being back in the hunt next year. While it didn’t go as we all wanted, there are still reasons to celebrate this 2020 season.
