Prominent CFB Analyst Believes Clemson Football is Built to Win it All in 2025

The Clemson Tigers have been one of the most successful programs in college football over the past 15 years, but they've hit a bit of a speed bump recently. Last season marked the first time since the 2020 season that the Tigers were selected to the College Football Playoff, an appearance that ended in a disappointing first-round exit.

After several years of falling short of his national championship winning standards, though, head coach Dabo Swinney appears to finally have a roster capable of getting back to the mountain top this season.

Headlined by one of the nation's best quarterbacks in Cade Klubnik and an absolutely stacked supporting cast around him, the Tigers' 2025 roster looks a lot like the ones that helped bring home two national titles in three years.

College football analyst David Pollack also sees shades of those dominant late 2010's squads in this year's team as well, as he recently talked about on an episode of his "See Ball, Get Ball" podcast.

"I see the same things in this roster as I saw with Dabo's championship teams," Pollack said. "The trio of wide receivers. The quarterback position being solidified. I don't see an offensive line that is a bunch of hammers. That's not who they were then, either. But they are going to survive elsewhere. The defensive line is going to have a couple of first-round picks."
