98 Seasons Ago Clemson Football Finished 5-3-1 in 1927

The start of a new era! In Josh Cody’s first season, Clemson wins as many games as it did with Bud Sunders in the past three seasons combined!
Overview:
According to Wikipedia:
“The 1927 Clemson Tigers football team represented Clemson College—now known as Clemson University—as a member of the Southern Conference (SoCon) during the 1927 college football season. Led by first-year head coach Josh Cody, the Tigers compiled an overall record of 5–3–1 with a mark of 2–2 in conference play, tying for eighth place in the SoCon.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1927_Clemson_Tigers_football_team
Head Coach Josh Cody:
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Cody)
The team captain was Bud Eskew.
Of Note:
According to Wikipedia:
New Head Coach Josh Cody was later named to “the Football Writers Association of America to the 1869-1918 Early Era All-American Team” as a player at Vanderbilt. He had played OL for Vandy from 1914-1916. He also played basketball for Vanderbilt.
Additionally:
“He was inducted as a player into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1970. Coach Charley Moran called Cody the greatest tackle ever to play in the South.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Cody
ClemsonTigers.com adds the following insights on Josh Cody:
“Cody played football at Vanderbilt. He remains the only Commodore to earn All-America honors three times (1915, ’16, and ’19). The 1920 Vanderbilt graduate was selected as an All-Time All-America player by the Football Writers Association.
The Commodores had a 23-9-3 record, as he was a devastating lineman on both sides of the ball under legendary head coach Dan McGugin. On occasion, he played in the backfield, and was both a great passer and drop-kicker. He once converted on a 45-yard drop-kick against Michigan. As one teammate recalled, “He would tell the running backs on which side of him to go, and you could depend on him to take out two men as needed. He was the best football player I’ve ever seen.” Cody also played basketball, baseball, and was on the track team at Vanderbilt, earning 13 varsity letters in all.
And, if this was not enough, he was a lieutenant in World War I in 1917 and 1918. Another teammate who witnessed his greatness once said, “He was a farm boy and he had no polish, but he was very honest and sincere. He didn’t have a scholarship—we had none in those days—but he had a real job. He cleaned the gym every day, cleaned up the locker rooms and the showers, and tended to the coal furnace after practice.” There were also many documentations to his toughness. Teammates remember that he did not like to wear pads, so he cut up an old quilt and sewed it into the shoulders of his jersey.”
https://clemsontigers.com/josh-cody-big-man-on-campus/
Wow – Josh Cody was one tough man!
Results:
September 24 Presbyterian* T 0–0
October 1 Auburn W 3–0
October 8 at NC State L 6–18
October 14 Erskine* W 25–6
October 20 at South Carolina W 20–0
October 29 Wofford* W 6–0
November 5 at The Citadel*
November 12 at Georgia L 0–32
November 24 at Furman* L 0–28
Attendance for the game in Columbia vs the Gamechickens reached a stunning 13,000! Hope the fans in Columbia enjoyed the shutout thrashing!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1927_Clemson_Tigers_football_team
With the win Clemson’s record in the series against the Chickens improved to 16-8-1. It would be a while before the Gamechickens won another game against Clemson!

Also in 1927:
According to ClemsonWiki:
Fall: Future Coach Frank Howard enters the University of Alabama on a scholarship from the Birmingham News.
