Tigers Roar Loud in ACC: Quartet Named Among Conference Elite

Clemson continues to show why it’s a powerhouse in the ACC, with four standout Tigers earning All-ACC honors after an impressive 2024 season. The recognition not only highlights individual talent but also reinforces the program’s consistent ability to produce elite-level performers across the board.

 

Leading the way is junior linebacker Marcus Allen, who anchored the Tigers’ defense with relentless energy and leadership. Allen racked up 92 tackles, 4 sacks, and a pair of forced fumbles, becoming the heartbeat of a unit that ranked among the top in the conference.

 

On the offensive side, wide receiver Jalen Brown made his mark with 1,012 receiving yards and 9 touchdowns, showcasing explosive playmaking ability that kept defenses on their heels all year. His crisp route-running and big-play potential turned him into a go-to target in clutch moments.

 

In the trenches, offensive lineman Tyler Simmons earned his spot with consistent protection and dominance in the run game. His leadership up front allowed Clemson’s offense to maintain balance and efficiency throughout the season.

 

Rounding out the honors is sophomore cornerback Malik Johnson, who emerged as a lockdown defender with 4 interceptions and 12 pass breakups. His physical play and instincts made him a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks.

 

Head coach Dabo Swinney praised the group for their work ethic and dedication. “These young men represent everything our program stands for—toughness, discipline, and team-first mentality,” Swinney said.

 

With four Tigers receiving All-ACC recognition, Clemson once again proves its ability to develop talent and remain a force in one of college football’s most competitive conferences. The future looks bright in Death Valley, and these four stars are just the beginning.
