The Clemson Tigers become the CFP National Champions, defeating Alabama. 

Clemson was victorious in a 44-16 match, becoming the national champions on January 7. 

The Tigers now hold two national titles. 

Clemson’s true-freshman quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, defined all odds and tremendously contributed to the victory. 

Lawerence, only 19-years-old, was outstanding, completing 20 of 32 passes for 347 yards, with three touchdowns and no interceptions.

He hope to “get three more [championships],” as he said after the game.

Dabo Swinney, Chemson head coach said post win to ESPN reporters, ”I know we’re not supposed to be here, we’re just little old Clemson, and I’m not supposed to be here. But we are, and I am.”

Clemson became the first major college team in 121 seasons to go 15-0, a perfect season. 

Congratulations to the Tigers on another successful season and their second national championship!
