Clemson closes gap, but not nearly enough.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. _ Tommy Bowden says his Clemson football team has made great strides in the past two seasons. He's right. Just look at the improvement: from three wins in 1998 to six in Bowden's first season to 9-3 now.
What's next for the Tigers?
"All that's left for us to do," says junior center Will Merritt, "is to win a national championship next year."
Ahhhh . . . _ not quite, Will.
In fact, if Monday's 41-20 Gator Bowl loss to No. 6 Virginia Tech proved nothing else, it's that there remains a huge, huge gap between where the Tigers are, and where they want to be. That is, where the Hokies are.
A Top 10, even Top Five team.
A team that wins 10, 11, 12 games.
