Level 2
Yes, but with an asterisk
Half of their starting defense (all of whom ended up playing on Sundays) was missing due to COVID.
Trevor Lawrence was also out with COVID, but I don't think that was the big factor, since DJ Uiagalelei had an excellent game.

Clemson, 2020
That was more of a very generous helping hand from Lady Luck, though, since half of their NFL-caliber defensive starters were out with COVID.
Even then, they almost beat us.
When they got those starters back, they took us to the woodshed in the rematch (ACC Championship Game).

Before tonight, the right answer is November 7, 2020 (Clemson)
But my preferred answer is January 7, 2013 (Themselves)
