the year before in 1980 I think CU was down down 33-0 in Winston Salem if I remember correctly and the tigers came back to win 35-33? I remember listening to the game on radio as a kid.

I know I was at the Wake game, I guess I was at the Maryland game the next year too. Because I know I was at the WR setting release.

Definitely Maryland. I was a student then and helped blow up balloons. We beat Boomer Easiason whole on probation and did not win the ACC. They did.

Quarter which led to a big Wake comeback. Starters went back in late in the game. We won 35-33.

Ok... the huge balloons release was in 1983 vs Maryland

1980 was the close win at Wake Forest... I think we came from behind to win it late
1981 was the blowout 82-24 over Wake Forest at home
1982 was the game in Japan vs Wake Forest. Clemson won but in a close one.
There seem to be some confusion on dates.
