Book excerpt: Go inside the making of the 2018 Clemson Tigers football team, the one that vaulted to the top and became the biggest thing in college football. From the beginning of the season, head coach Dabo Swinney's rallying cry was "joy."

Author Larry Williams, who has covered Clemson and Swinney since 2004, unearths revealing anecdotes from Dabo's tenure like you've never seen before and shares how a season dominated by Alabama hype ended up overwhelmed by a Clemson tide and a new college football dynasty.
