B-E-L-I-E-V-E !! The Tigers do so now it's time for you to believe too. After a thrashing of NC State I don't see how you could think otherwise. The fate of the Tigers could well be decided before kickoff (and I think it will be decided) since UNC plays BC...
Thanks C.J.

Thanks C.J.
I just wanted to take a few moments to say thanks C.J.!
Thank you for picking Clemson over Florida, Florida State, Southern Cal and Miami. I will never forget your press conference and how you handled that day with class and dignity. I know...

After starting the season 2-3, I don’t think this game could have been scripted any better for the Tigers. Clemson comes in on fire, while Virginia seems to be spinning out of control. Winners of five straight games, the Tigers look to extend their ACC season...

The Cavs come into Saturday’s game as a 20-point underdog with a 3-7 record.
They lost their first three games to William & Mary, TCU and Southern Miss but appeared to have their season turned around with a three game winning streak...

Clemson had just lost to Maryland to drop to 2-3 overall and 1-2 in the ACC. There were reports of Dabo and Napier fighting. The natives were restless.
Saturday Clemson can clinch the Atlantic Division title and win its sixth consecutive...

From “We Will Rock You” to DeAndre rocked you, Clemson’s Death Valley was electric last Saturday night. After a slow start, Clemson took Florida State behind the woodshed in the second half and placed themselves in the drivers seat toward the ACC Championship...

Clemson still controls its destiny after a big win last week against the Noles but this matchup against the Wolfpack should be an interesting one. There are still plenty of nay sayers out there waiting for Clemson to choke as they have in the past but this is...

Doom and Gloom
I have read some posters on Tigernet and have heard from some callers on my radio show that had a disturbing attitude. I just can’t share the “doom and gloom” feeling some have heading into this weekend.

I remember when Clemson was playing its best football in the 1980s but NC State was a thorn in our sides. The Tigers were the more talented team but Dick Sheridan’s crew upset Clemson three straight years.
Over the past five seasons...

Heisman Candidates and Balloting
The P word was not a welcomed one around Clemson for the last few years of the Tommy Bowden era. The previous head coach sometimes talked about parity and how the playing field was level and how close in talent so many teams...

Having been at LSU while Fisher ran the offense to the 2003 national championship, I'm pretty familiar with what he likes to run out there. He's always been able to develop his quarterback into at least a solid, and...

Since Clemson's offense is loosely R&S based, and we use considerable motion, I thought this would be important to highlight. Note that since Wake Forest, we have used less motion than before.
Related to this is the phasing out of motion in the run...

If Clemson wants to get to the Championship game without worrying about what others do then they need to win this game as well as their next 2 ACC games. Yes we've heard this before. Boston College and Clemson are 3-2 in ACC play with FSU on their heels at...

Looking over the film of the games, I noticed this play and the various play-action passes based off of it, when I was thinking it was isolation. This play looks very similar to the Iso when the FB leads up the middle. One way to distinguish the two is by...

There was a day in the not so distant past when ACC stood for Another Clemson Championship. Since Florida State’s arrival in the league, Clemson has failed to expand on their once-proud conference championship legacy. Seventeen years, zero championships.
