Hey, Clemson Family -- The Tigers' winning streak against the Florida State Seminoles is over after an eight-year run -- with a 31-24 loss in overtime that has put a serious crimp in Clemson's ability to repeat as ACC champions. Despite the mistakes that cost coach Dabo Swinney's team the game, there were clear signs of substantial improvements and valuable strengths in this team, improving the outlook for the rest of the season from where it was two weeks ago. Longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman bring you the top insights from Saturday's tough loss, from areas where criticism is most warranted to areas where optimism is fair to have. We're glad you found us!

Hey, Clemson Family -- it's time to take stock of where the Tigers will need to build on their recent improvements and keep the winning streak over the Noles going in 2023. From Cade Klubnik and the passing game to Tyler Davis and the pass rush, from special teams (yes, Clemson added a kicker since we recorded this) to slicing defenses with the running game of Will Shipley and Phil Mafah (and more Klubnik would help too), longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman cover the aspects that the Tigers need to nail down Saturday afternoon in Death Valley. We're glad you found us!

Hey Clemson Family, we've got details on Garrett Riley, the Tigers' new offensive coordinator, thanks to guest Sam Khan Jr. of The Athletic, who's got plenty of experience covering sports in Texas and has insights on the specifics of what Riley brings from TCU to Clemson – including the reasons Clemson fans can expect to see a lot more out of its running game featuring Will Shipley and Phil Mafah, as well as how excited Khan is to see Riley pair up with another former Texan in quarterback Cade Klubnik. (NOTE: Photo courtesy Nelson Chenault/Broyles Award.) Plus: co-host Daniel Shirley talks about why Clemson men's basketball was able to dispense with Georgia Tech rather easily despite playing without its starting point guard – and why the outlook is good for the Tigers to stay in first place in the coming days.

Hey Clemson Family, the Tigers now own 21 ACC titles thanks in large part to the emergence of Cade Klubnik at quarterback Saturday night in a 39-10 win over North Carolina in the 2022 ACC Championship game – and Clemson now is headed to another New Year's Six bowl game in the Orange Bowl, where Klubnik will make his first career start. Plenty of other players were huge factors in the win over the Tar Heels, as wide receiver Cole Turner boost onto the scene with a couple of big plays and the Tigers' first 100-yard receiving game of the season. Cornerback Nate Wiggins had a pick-six as well as a blocked field goal and several pass breakups to post the biggest game of his young career. Linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr. made his presence felt to would-be Heisman Trophy contender Drake Maye, with three sacks on the vaunted Tar Heels quarterback. Barrett Carter, Trenton Simpson, Andrew Mukuba, Jalyn Phillips and Ray Mickens Jr. also had big games. What's next for Clemson as it prepares to face Tennessee in the Orange Bowl near the end of the month? Get a full breakdown of all the pieces of the puzzle from Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman, two longtime members of the sports media and both Clemson graduates, right here on the Reign Supreme Alway podcast.

Hey Clemson Family, it's time to see if the Tigers can again pick themselves up off the mat and avoid back-to-back losses as they prepare to travel to Charlotte to face the North Carolina Tar Heels in the 2022 ACC Championship Game. Find out which angles fans will want to watch for. What's going to give way: Can UNC's offense led by stellar QB Drake Maye break its trend of struggling (well, relative to their top form this year) against a talented defensive opponent? Or will the Clemson defense led by Tyler Davis, Barrett Carter and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. break, not bend, for the second straight week? And when Clemson has the ball, can the Tigers avoid the mistakes that have plagued them in the second half of the season, including turnovers by DJ Uiagalelei, Will Shipley and Antonio Williams? Or will it be the Tar Heels defensive players who settle in and improve their results? Coach Dabo Swinney and his coordinators, Brandon Streeter and Wes Goodwin, need to find some answers. Longtime sports media members Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman look at the major factors to expect in this game and the players likely to be in the spotlight. We're glad you found us -- check out our channel at YouTube.com/clemsonkickoff, go Tigers!

Hey, Clemson Family --can DJ Uiagalelei, WIll Shipley, Phil Mafah and Antonio Williams keep the Tigers' playoff hopes on life support against South Carolina? It would be a success that Tennessee wasn't able to manage. Longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman analyze what Clemson must do on offense and defense to keep Spencer Rattler and the Gamecocks from pulling off a major upset for their second straight game. Get the info on matchups on both sides of the ball before Clemson kicks off against South Carolina in 2022 and hear what Dabo Swinney, Wes Goodwin, Brandon Streeter and the rest of the staff must account for in their game plan. We're glad you found us, go Tigers!

Hey, Clemson Family -- another Hurricane comes and goes through Death Valley as the Tigers win again. Barrett Carter, Trenton Simpson and the Clemson defense flooded Miami with pressure behind the line of scrimmage to hold the Canes to just 98 yards of total offense for the game in a convincing 40-10 win. DJ Uiagalelei and the tight ends barged their way down the field, with only a few undertow moments, to hold up their end of the bargain. The football program's momentum carried into Sunday with a commitment from 2024 defensive back Tavoy Feagin and into Monday with a commitment from 2023 defensive end Tomarrion Parker. Can the surge run all the way through Saturday's game with South Carolina? Not to mention the following week's ACC Championship Game against North Carolina and then a playoff berth? Longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman break it all down and provide the analysis needed to keep it all in perspective. We're glad you found us!

Hey Clemson Family, the Tigers had a successful effort to control the game and defeat Louisville on Saturday, 31-16, check out the reasons Clemson improved its showings on offense and on defense despite some key talents missing the game because of injury. On defense, linebacker Barrett Carter was among the players who stepped up even as he moved to a new position; Carter had a pretty play hurdling a would-be blocker on his way to 8.5 tackles, 3.5 for loss, and a prominent interception. Wade Woodaz and nickel defensive backs including Andrew Mukuba filled the resulting gap ably as well. On offense, Will Shipley and Antonio Williams continue to power the attack while Phil Mafah emerged with perhaps his most complete form yet to lead the team in rushing. Quarterback DJ Uiagalelei capably handled Louisville's pressure. Find out how it all fit together and more with longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman, both Clemson graduates, revisiting and analyzing the game. Plus: Clemson men's soccer played well enough in the ACC tournament to earn a first-round bye in the NCAA tourney, hear what's been going well for them and who they might face. We're glad you found us!

Hey, Clemson Family -- There's no good news for Tigers fans out of Saturday night's loss at Notre Dame, but we've got the straight news about the results nonetheless. Longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman break down the obvious problems on the field, including Coach Dabo Swinney taking responsibility for a poor game plan from him and his staff. We'll also get into some troubles that maybe weren't so obvious -- and even a few that remain mysteries. What are the odds that Clemson had one bad game rather than this being part of a longer trend to come?

Hey Clemson Family, coming out of the bye week it's time to reset how each position looks on the field and how the players and coaches grade out as they are in the college football playoff picture at No. 4 in the committee's first rankings. Plus it's time to preview the Notre Dame game and we're lucky to have national college football writer Matt Murschel of the Orlando Sentinel bring his knowledge of the Fighting Irish to our show, talking about this year's strengths and weaknesses for Notre Dame and how that might match up with Clemson's up and downs on the field. Speaking of which, co-hosts Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman grade out each position unit for the Tigers so far this year, from quarterbacks D.J. Uiagalelei and Cade Klubnik to running backs Will Shipley and Phil Mafah to defensive linemen Tyler Davis, KJ Henry, Bryan Bresee and more.

Hey, Clemson Family -- Maybe the issue isn't whether the Tigers are DJ Uiagalelei's team or Cade Klubnik's team, because it could simply be Will Shipley's team. Clemson beat Syracuse 27-21 by making use of both quarterbacks but the starting running back in Shipley carried the load figuratively and literally for the Tigers offense even as the vaunted Clemson defense once again took quite some time to round itself into the kind of form that's been expected for it. Longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman discuss what unfolded in Death Valley on Saturday, October 22, 2022, as Clemson moved to 8-0 heading into its bye week with four more games on the horizon for the regular season with a possible College Football Playoff berth within sight.

Hey Clemson Family, the Tigers are in the driver's seat of the ACC's Atlantic Division after their seventh straight win over the Florida State Seminoles, in a game Saturday night that – much like the NC State game two weeks before it – was more convincing than the scoreboard shows. In Episode Thirty-Three of the Reign Supreme Alway podcast, co-hosts Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman discuss how Clemson controlled much of the night against FSU and why some costly mistakes on defense almost jeopardized a win for the Tigers. Plus we've got analysis of how Will Shipley, DJ Uiagalelei, Antonio Williams and others successfully handled some changes in offensive coordinator Brandon Streeter's expanding playbook. We'll also share our perspective on the remaining competition in the race for Clemson to earn a spot in the 2022 ACC Championship Game with a battle of unbeatens up next for the Tigers.

Hey, Clemson Family -- it's Clemson vs. Florida State week once again and there's college football recruiting news in the Tigers' program that makes it an even newsier week. Offensive lineman Zechariah Owens has decommitted from Clemson and the rumor mill is churning with the possibility that FSU has serious interest. Owens says money is a significant factor so NIL appears to be in play. Of more immediate note, Clemson and Florida St. are preparing to go toe-to-toe Saturday night in prime time as a close battle is expected to return to the ACC Atlantic rivalry with the division crown certainly in play (as well as the Tigers' playoff hopes). How will the Tigers contain Seminoles stars Jordan Travis, Johnny Wilson and others? The return of injured players Bryan Bresee, Sheridan Owens, Malcolm Greene and others could make a big difference. Join guest Roy Philpott along with co-hosts Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman as they discuss the expectations for Clemson vs. Florida State in 2022 on the Reign Supreme Alway podcast! We're also talking about what DJ Uiagalelei must do to help the Clemson offense and how he can help Will Shipley and Phil Mafah get the Tigers' running game off the ground.

Hey, Clemson Family -- D.J. Uiagalelei and the Tigers offense, unlikely as it might have once seemed, had to carry a hurting defense to victory over Wake Forest on Saturday in a 51-45 double-overtime thriller. After Clemson jumped out to a 14-0 first-quarter lead, why did it end up being so close, though? Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman analyze what went wrong for the Tigers defense and why the offense was able to, as head coach Dabo Swinney put it, shoulder the load and ensure Clemson could remain undefeated four games into the 2022 season. Surely things must improve before playing N.C. State at home in primetime next weekend in front of a raucous Death Valley crowd that also will see College Gameday on campus in the morning. Tyler Davis returned from injury showed what he's capable of on defense against Wake Forest, but numerous others need to step up their game and perhaps as Swinney put it rediscover their "edge."

Hey, Clemson Family — it's time for the Tigers to face up to a stronger opponent in Wake Forest, on the road no less, taking on the defending ACC Atlantic Division champion after three games to start the year against lesser competition. What issues need to be resolved on defense? How can the offense step up its production to meet a tougher challenge? Guest Chapel Fowler of The State newspaper joins co-hosts Bill Zimmerman and Daniel Shirley to look at the top angles surrounding Clemson's first significant test of the 2022 football season. And they'll be doing that with one less wide receiver on the active roster as Dacari Collins intends to transfer. It's a big week for the Tigers, who figure to lean on WIll Shipley, Barrett Carter and others — including defensive tackle Bryan Bresee, who is expected to return after the loss of his sister. We'll give you what you need to know about the game before kickoff of the Clemson game Saturday at noon at Wake Forest. We're glad you found us!

Hey Clemson Family, the second week of the Tigers football season showed some new successes on offense, but some surprisingly persistent troubles also were visible for the vaunted Clemson defense this year – and it remains to be seen whether those issues will be a trend or an early glitch. The Tigers have maintained a bend-but-don't-break mentality on D and kept opponents at an average of 11 points per game in the first two weeks of the 2022 season, but one major problem has been obvious against ACC opponent Georgia Tech and FCS opponent Furman – and Daniel Shirley points out it must get resolved before the schedule gets tougher with a road game against defending ACC Atlantic Division champion Wake Forest coming up in Week 4 and N.C. State coming to Death Valley in Week 5 looking for its second straight win in the Textile Bowl rivalry. Reasons for optimism shone through, however, in the offense's performance as quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei put up strong statistics in the first half this week and generally had the offense moving in much more effective fashion (as it should have, admittedly, against a lower-tier opponent).

Hey, Clemson Family - with ACC media days behind us, it's time to float some predictions for the final year of the Atlantic and Coastal divisions, and it should not be shocking that Clemson is once again among the favorites to win the conference (but how high can the Tigers go after a down season saw them miss the ACC title game in 2021?) with some solid challengers on the schedule. Bill Zimmerman and Daniel Shirley will also go over what to expect along the Tigers' offensive line, which needs to play better if Clemson is going to advance during the postseason. We've also got a preview of this year's Clemson at Florida State game, with the Seminoles also looking to improve and restore some drama to the rivalry.
