CHARLOTTE, N.C. Deshaun Watson understands its hard to go 14-1, but its even harder to go 15-0. He would know:His team came within one measly scoreofdoing just that last Tony Gonzalez Jersey season.The Tigers were14-0 when they arrived in Glendale, Ariz.,totake on No. 2 Alabama in the national title game. When they left, they were 14-1.MORE: Just because we lost that one doesnt mean the whole program, the whole way we think has to change, Watson said Friday at the ACC Kickoff in Charlotte.Neither team closed out 2015 untouched. But the difference betweenAlabama and Clemson is that the Crimson Tide left Arizona with its 16th claimednational championship, while the Tigers left empty-handed.Nowthat Clemson has wrapped Marlon Davidson Jersey up its media days, there's little else between itand the start of the2016 season, just over a month away.We start over, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said Friday. New team, new chemistry, new leadership. Pay the price all over again, with a humble and hungry spirit.MORE: Lets not get too dramatic, though.Clemson doesnt have to go back to the drawing board. The Tigers offense returns Watson, the presumptive Heisman favorite, 1,000-yard rusherWayne Gallmanand last year's leadingreceiver Artavis Scott.The offense also gained four-star running back recruitTavien Feaster, and welcomed back wide receiver Mike Williams the team's leading receiver from 2014 who fractured his neck in the Tigers 2015 season-opener while scoring a touchdown.(Williams is)poised to get back out there, Swinney said, andpick up where he left off, scoring a bunch of touchdowns, andhopefully jogging back to the sideline when its over.Clemsons offense will be Marcus Mariota Jersey fine. And so will its defense.MORE: Linebacker Ben Boulware is back. Cornerback Cordrea Tankersley is back. Defensive tackle Carlos Watkins, who Swinney expects will haveanother dominant season, is back.All three players weredefensivemonsters for Clemson last season, and now they get to show five-star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence and four-star linebacker Tre Lamar how its done.The standard is never going to change, Watson said. The best is the standard. Coach Swinney has been preaching that for the past eight years.The Tigers shouldhave another shot at perfection this season, but that all depends on theirseason-opener at Auburn on Sept. 3. The result of that game, Duron Harmon Jersey Watson said, will set the tone for the entireseason. And he wants a strong, fast start.The fourth quarter of the national championship game last season has only served as fuel for Watson and the Tigers this season.The lo s will be a chip on the teams shoulders, even ifhe knows his team needs to keep movingforward.MORE: Swinney, however, said it best: "The failure is just as important, if not more important, than the succe s."Coming so close, but ultimately falling short of the team's first national title since 1981, isa solid form of motivation for the Chris Lindstrom Jersey Tigers.As it should be.We didnt win the game, Swinney said. We finished with some regrets. We want to finish with no regrets.
