Question for fellow alumni


May 21, 2019, 7:03 PM

What was our record vs Coots while you were at Clemson (max 5 games)?

2-1-1 for me; last one was 45-0 at Willy

2-1-1. Undefeated in Columbia. Not so good at home!***

actually 4-1. I knew what I was doing my freshman year by living the motto " mom and dad are not here and we can drink beer!". So I was taking 9 hours in the fall of 81 to finish up. Me and a buddy moved back on campus into Cope right above the Valley! Had the best fall of our lives right in the middle of Tiger Football history!

Is the friend who flunked English 7 times a poster "hear" on this "bored"? And is he the one who said we would never "loose" a game next year? He should have "payed" more attention in class.

Re: Question for fellow alumni


May 21, 2019, 8:54 PM

Before you make fun of the number of football seasons I was there, note that I was a co-op student and went to grad school, so I had a few extra falls. I was at Clemson '85 - December '92. I defended my thesis at the end of the summer of '92, but it was too late to graduate in the summer, so technically I was a student in the fall of 92. We were 5-2-1 in my time there.

I used to pull for the Chickens against the "big boys" until that loss in 1987. The players talked s!@t. Never have I pulled for them since. I have a post in the hall of fame about it. Take a look if you ever find yourself on the moral slippery slope. Looking back, it has been many a glorious year since.

I honestly don't remember. On the other hand, when I showed up at Clemson I didn't even know the Coots were our rival. I didn't know much about Clemson when school started. I moved from California to Clemson. I was on waiting list at Clemson and assumed I was going to Bama. Clemson informed my Mom a week before classes started that I could attend, so I switched to Clemson sight unseen. My neighbors growing up were Clemson fans. They were originally from Union but ended up in California. That's how I found our about Clemson.

I'm from the Santa Barbara area but my last two years of HS were in Spartanburg. I also applied for Clemson sight unseen...first time I saw Clemson was after I was offered and showed up for orientation about a month before classes started. So, I had more of a break-in period than you.

So, 2-2 vs the Coots, but nowhere close to 0.500 otherwise.

So, To quote the commercial, "Not too goooood!"

4-3

I was a co-op student, too, and went to grad school for two years (89-96, was at co-op job in 1991 hence only 7 seasons). First was the 45-0 thrashing we gave them my freshman year, then we beat them in Death Valley the next year, and after that, the visiting team won every game thereafter while I was there (1992, 1994, 1996 USuC won, 1991, 1993, 1995 Clemson won).

My senior year (1977), I went to the Carolina game in Columbia and personally witnessed "the catch"! Jerry Butler caught the ball in the endzone to come from behind and beat the gamecocks 31-27! We all left the stadium and went across tot the Tally Ho bar and drank all night! What a great time!
