The latest US LBM Coaches Poll was released Sunday following Week 10 of the college football season.
Clemson (5-4, 2-4 ACC) remains unranked and hasn’t been ranked in the Coaches Poll since the one released on Sept. 17, when the Tigers were 2-1 and ranked No. 23 following a 48-14 win vs. Florida Atlantic on Sept. 16.
On Saturday, a strong defensive effort late in the fourth quarter and a workhorse performance by running back Phil Mafah secured Clemson a 31-23 upset over No. 12 Notre Dame and gave head coach Dabo Swinney his 166th career win to pass College Football Hall of Famer Frank Howard (165 from 1940-69) for sole possession of the Clemson record for career head coaching wins.
The Tigers will play the second game of their three-game November homestand when they host Georgia Tech at Memorial Stadium this Saturday. Kickoff is set for noon on ABC.
