Last year, the Tigers of ClemPson travelled to Athens for the first game of the season. Georgia squeaked out a win, but the two teams went in completely opposite directions. Georgia went on to win the SEC Championship, while ClemPson mired in mediocrity for the rest of the season. ClemPson desperately needs a win over Georgia to get its season off to a good start. Georgia will have to travel to a hostile environment (with a depleted roster!) where ClemPson fans hate UGA about as much as they do USC-C.

A bit about Clemson University:

Colors: Orange & Purple
Mascot: Tigers
Location: Clemson, South Carolina

Interesting Fact: Running down "The Hill" originally started out of practicality. Before the west stands were built, the football team dressed at Fike Field House and ran from there to the gate and down the hill onto the field. Today, it's the sound of "YOUR CLEMSON TIGERS!!!" A cannon fires, the band plays "Tiger Rag" and thousands of orange-clad fans cheer the moment when the Tiger football team runs down the grassy hill and onto the field. This tradition has been dubbed "the most exciting 25 seconds in college football."
