After beating Florida State 37-34 for its first win at Doak Campbell Stadium in a decade, Clemson is one of just five unbeaten teams in the Football Bowl Subdivision.

He’s still been outstanding, as when leading Clemson to three consecutive scoring drives to reverse FSU’s 28-20 lead to start the fourth quarter.

Condensed, the facts of the matter are thus: Clemson is unbeaten after eight games, has not played its best football, is through the hard part of its schedule and is again slated to represent the ACC in the College Football Playoff.

Largely ignored amid the team’s perceived sluggishness is how it mirrors last season, when Clemson won six games by 10 points or fewer.

These ideas aren’t mutually exclusive: Clemson is flawed yet perfect.

It’s true: In all three phases, Clemson can improve.

T are far too many variables at play – such as a postseason opponent, for example – to say with complete confidence that Clemson will win the national championship.

Despite flaws in need of mending, it’s undeniable that Clemson is one of the select few capable of winning the title.
