On This Date: 2003 Clemson- 39 Georgia Tech- 3

Georgia Tech feels the Clemson sting, Tigers win 39-3

AP / WIS NEWS 10
Published: Sep. 21, 2003 at 2:30 AM EDT|



Charlie Whitehurst threw for 298 yards and three second-quarter touchdowns, leading Clemson past Georgia Tech 39-3 Saturday night in an unusually one-sided game for the Atlantic Coast Conference rivals.



The Tigers won their third in a row by throwing deep against Georgia Tech, which fell apart after splitting two well-played games against powerhouses Auburn and Florida State.

Whitehurst threw touchdown passes of nine yards to Tony Elliott, 12 yards to Kevin Youngblood and 33 yards to Airese Currie; the last with just 12 seconds left in the first half to give the Tigers a commanding 23 to 3 lead.



Whitehurst added a rushing touchdown late in the game, sneaking over from the one to give Clemson its largest victory over the Yellow Jackets since a 73-0 rout in 1903.



Maybe the uniforms helped. The Tigers wore purple jerseys for the first time since the 1992 Citrus Bowl.



The Yellow Jackets' only score came on a Dan Burnett 20-yard field goal.

That was my first trip to Grant Field. I was stunned, to be honest.
