Final Analysis
How frustrating can an 11-3 season, an ACC championship and a New Year’s Six bowl really be? Enough for Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney to fire longtime staffer and friend Brandon Streeter after one season as offensive coordinator and replace him with one of the sport’s top young coaches.
Clemson’s splashy hiring of Riley made it clear: Anything short of returning to the four-team field in 2023 will be a disappointment. The Tigers could be a slim favorite to win the ACC over Florida State. Once again, they have the raw talent on their roster to contend. But the consistency? That’s to be determined.
