The Clemson Tigers ended their 2025 season on a sour note.
Clemson faced off against the Penn State Nittany Lions in the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium on Saturday afternoon and were the subject of mockery on social media over a failed fake punt attempt.

College football fans poked fun at Clemson over the play.
It was a tough day for the Tigers from there on out. Penn State led 6-3 at halftime, and Clemson was only able to get one touchdown on the board in the second half.
