Clemson ranked in Top 2 of Very Early Top 25 for 2016 |
Athlon Sports released its very early
College Football Top 25 Poll for 2016 on Wednesday morning and had Clemson ranked #2 overall behind only Alabama.
"Quarterback Deshaun Watson returns for another run at the Heisman Trophy in 2016, and the junior has a strong supporting cast in place, including left tackle Mitch Hyatt and standout receiver Artavis Scott," Athlon Sports said. "The receiving corps should receive a boost with the return of Mike Williams (57 receptions in 2014), who missed nearly all of 2015 due to a neck injury." Clemson fans should be energized for the future of their football program because next year appears to be just as exhilarating as 2015. Athlon Sports' Top 25 Poll for 2016: 1. Alabama 2. Clemson 3.
