The Clemson Tigers are looking to do something to a preseason No. 1 for the first time in more than 30 years.
The No. 14 Tigers will face the No. 1 Bulldogs in Atlanta in the season opener for both teams. Swinney came armed with some wit, and a stat that needed a little fact-checking.Swinney was correct, assuming one doesn’t want to dig through 35 years of preseasons AP polls. But in the year he referenced,was the nation’s No. 1 team in the preseason AP poll. The Hurricanes opened the season at No. 16and lost, 28-21, en route to a 10-2 season that finished with a No. 4 ranking in the final poll.
Winning the opener is big out of the gate, Swinney said. But, when you’re facing the team considered the best in the country, it takes on just a bit more meaning. Historically, the rivalry is relatively one-sided, with Georgia leading, 43-18-4. The Bulldogs have won the last two meetings, with the most recent in 2021 in Charlotte, with Georgia winning, 10-3. This will be the first time the two teams have met in Atlanta, which is about 90 minutes from Georgia’s home in Athens.
