Clemson outscored NC State 10-0 in the fourth quarter but the Tigers’ comeback attempt fell short as the Wolfpack won, 24-17, at Carter-Finley Stadium on Saturday.
Clemson dropped to 4-4 (2-4 ACC) while NC State improved to 5-3 (2-2).
There was plenty of buzz on social media about Clemson’s latest loss, which gives the Tigers their first four-loss season since 2011 and first four-loss season in conference play since 2010.
Check out some of what they’re saying below:
Clemson is 4-4 after losing to NC State, 24-17. From 2018-2020, Clemson lost three total games. In the next three years, including this one, they've lost a total of 10.

Clemson’s Dabo Swinney on Oct. 17: “Honestly, maybe we need to lose a few games & lighten up the bandwagon. Sometimes the bandwagon can get a little too full.” Mission accomplished: Tigers are 0-2 since then & drop to 7-7 in last 14 games

What is worse?
Clemson going 4-4 on the season or losing on the CW?

What more is there to say about Clemson? Just an average, run of the mill team. But this is revealing via @ESPNStatsInfo This is the first time over the last 20 seasons that Clemson has lost multiple games in a season after outgaining its opponent by 100 yards or more.

Obviously I’m just frustrated but this is hard to watch. It’s not all #2’s fault, but it feels like our offense is super mediocre all around.
— Jordan Leggett (@JordanLeggett16) October 28, 2023
A team with 200 yards of offense, 8 first downs and 3/13 on third down just won.
