If passes, Peeler's bill would press Clemson University to design the plate and submit it to the state Department of Motor Vehicles for final approval.
"I am a Clemson graduate, proud of what Coach Dabo Swinney and his team accomplished this season and want to provide the opportunity for all South Carolinians to show their pride," Peeler said in a statement.
Clemson defeated the Alabama Crimson Tide 35-31 in the National Championship game on Jan. 9.
