Show notes

The #1 Clemson Tigers faced their first test of the season in Death Valley on Saturday nigh against the reigning ACC Coastal champions, the Virginia Cavaliers, and, though pulling off an 18 point victory, head into next weekend's highly anticipated matchup against the #7 Miami Hurricanes with more questions than answers. In this ep we discuss the game and the struggles of a young, but talented, defense that gave up over 400 yards to the Cavaliers (3:13), a potentially lethal offense that has not quite yet found it’s identity (33:27), and a special teams unit that has quietly become a strength of this team (1:02:46).

Show notes

The #1 Clemson Tigers shelled The Citadel in front of 19k socially distanced fans in Death Valley on Saturday afternoon, scoring all 49 points in the first half in a game that saw 100+ Tigers get in on the action. In this ep we recap an offense (4:55) that, led by Heisman candidate Trevor Lawrence, was unstoppable behind the first team offensive line but stalled once the backups entered the game, failing to put up points in the 2nd half. We also take a look at the defense (29:47) which, on the other hand, dominated throughout behind the strength of a rebuilt defensive line unit led by the phenomenal true freshman Miles Murphy and Bryan Bresee. We wrap with a look around the ACC and begin to ponder Clemson’s path to the playoffs with the SEC now slated to start next week and the Big 10 back in the fold (48:26). Enjoy and Go Tigers!!!

1-0: (1)Clemson 37, Wake Forest 13 Sep 15, 2020

Show notes

The Clemson Tigers are back for what is already shaping up to be an unusual and unpredictable 2020 college football season as, despite several key players not making the trip to Winston-Salem, presumably due to COVID-related precautions, the Tigers shook off some early rust in an eventual 37-13 route of Wake Forest on Saturday night. In this game recap we discuss an offense that once again opened up and found success in the passing game over the middle (8:16), a new look defense that returned to dominating the line of scrimmage (33:41), and a special teams unit now filled with veteran kickers who made their impact felt (44:54). We wrap with a look around college football and discuss the possibility of the Big 10 joining in on the action as conference officials continue to waffle on their decision (49:08). Either way, football is back. Enjoy and Go Tigers!!!

Opting In: August Camp Check-in Aug 21, 2020

Show notes

As the end of August Camp nears we are t-minus 3 weeks from the hopeful start of the College Football season and the dust has seemingly settled, for now, on which conferences are opting in or opting out of the 2020 campaign. While the lack of Big 10 participation the sport loses some luster but there is still plenty to be excited about as Trevor Lawrence, ETN, and a reloaded defensive line look to make it back to the playoffs for a 6th straight season. In this ep we discuss the fallout from the Big 10 debacle, catch up on the storylines and standouts on offense and defense two weeks into camp, and continue to search for something to excite us about this years schedule (aside from the fact we’d get to watch football this year). Enjoy and Go Tigers!!!
