Clemson is back in the College Football Playoff with unfinished business.

After a dramatic end to the 2016 National Championship game, all the Clemson Tigers have been thinking about is how they can return to the College Football Playoff and exact their revenge on the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Every practice, meeting, film session, snap, quarter and victory since that moment has led to this moment. The Clemson Tigers now have their chance at redemption in the College Football Playoff. Dabo Swinney can officially erase the term “Clemsoning” from the college football vocabulary.

It won’t be easy, though. Clemson has an incredibly difficult path to the 2016 season College Football Playoff National Championship Game. The Tigers will have to defeat the last two College Football Playoff National Champions and prevent either from claiming a second national title since the playoff format began.

The good news for Swinney and Co., though, is that there are five reasons the Clemson Tigers should feel confident they’ll win the College Football Playoff and become National Champions.
