It has been six days since Clemson lost to Alabama in the National Championship Game, but there still seems to be a lot of discussion concerning the Tigers’ incredible season and their ability to do the same next season.
Recently, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney became the recipient of the Bear Bryant National Coach of the Year Award right after he won the American Football Coaches Association National Coach of the Year Award. Clemson quarterback, Deshaun Watson, who broke Vince Young’s record for total yards in a National Championship Game, won the Archie Griffin Award as the nation’s best player and the Manning Award as the nation’s best quarterback.
With Clemson football still being a topic of discussion, here is what has been said in the past week:
Congratulations to Coach Venables!
Best is the standard.#ALLIN 🐅 #Clemson pic.twitter.com/GMFRZsYt7z

Deshaun Watson says he's already watched the National Title game 4 or 5 times to improve & to try correct the mistakes he made in the game
