Clemson has two of top 4 ACC non-conference must-see matchups |
Athlon has released its
ACC must-see non-conference matchups of 2014 and it has Clemson in two of their top four games of the entire ACC season.
Clemson vs South Carolina is ranked #2 on the list and Clemson vs Georgia is ranked #4.
As far as deeply entrenched rivalries and overall importance of the game to the national landscape go, it's hard to argue the Palmetto State season finale won't be one the biggest non-conference games in the league. Carolina and Steve Spurrier are eyeing an SEC East title and possible playoff berth, so a loss to the Tigers for the first time since 2008 would be crippling to those hopes. If the Tigers' offense develops quickly, this could be another top-15 matchup.
