There’s plenty of frustration on the Clemson side of things after Saturday’s 22-10 loss to Penn State in the Pinstripe Bowl, and how things transpired for the Tigers during the 2025 season overall.
Among those apparently frustrated is former Clemson standout Thomas Brittle, who lettered in baseball for Jack Leggett’s Tigers in 2012 and 2013 and was an All-ACC outfielder in 2012 after transferring from College of Charleston.
Brittle took to social media after the Pinstripe Bowl loss and said what many are thinking.
“There will need to be some major changes and additions to the roster for Clemson football to have any thing slightly worth looking forward to for next year,” Brittle wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Clemson finishes the 2025 season at 7-6, its worst record since 2010, Dabo Swinney’s second season as the full-time head coach. The Tigers also failed to win a postseason game for the 15th consecutive season.
The Tigers also saw their streak of winning at least eight games in a season come to a close. Clemson had won eight or more games every year since 2011, which also ended at 14 years.
Clemson will now begin preparations for its 2026 season, which is slated to begin with Clemson making its first trip to Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, La. to face LSU on Sept. 5.
