It wasn't long ago that Clemson was derided for failing to show up on the big stage, for flaming out spectacularly.

Things change very quickly in the world of collegiate athletics. Knee-jerk reactions to single games or single seasons are usually proven wrong.

I like the trajectory of ND football.
