Which rain game did Dabo lose?


Oct 11, 2020, 12:40 AM

This from the game notes:

Clemson improved to 10-1 in rain games under Dabo Swinney. In those 11 contests, Clemson is plus-15 in the turnover margin (28-13).

Was it TCU in 2009? Seems like I remember rain that day, maybe???

2009 TCU @ CLEMSON

Yes it had to be the TCU game in 2009. The pockets of my rain coat were full of water! By the way the Horned Frogs were extremely Lucky that day. I think the they won something like 14-10 & if I remember correctly they scored a long touchdown that was either tipped or where a Clemson player fell down on the play....?. Dabo called it "the fluke touchdown" in his press conference I think.

I was on the bottom of the hill. I remember how huge their offensive linemen were. Just monsters. It wasn't a fluke though. TCU had about 100 more yards offensively. I think Kyle Parker only completed about 40% of his passes that game. CJ tried to put the team on his back He had like 200 of Clemson's 300 yards. But Clemson played hard that game. TCU ended the season top 10 with only 1 loss to Boise State (who should have played for the national championship).

He was calling the TD a fluke, not the win. And I agree, it was a fluke TD.

Orange britches for TCU? Guess that was before Dabo started reserving them only for “championship” games.

Just not our year, but glad it happened. We changed offensive identity after that year

Wasn’t there a pretty long weather delay in that one? Seems like we were handling things but couldn’t get back on track after the delay? Maybe I’m mixing it up with another one.
