Todays player spotlight is #62 Bryce Smith. He is a redshirt sophomore offensive lineman for the 2025 Clemson Tigers.

Bryce “Bypassed scholarship offers from several FBS schools to join Clemson as a walk-on in 2023 … enters 2025 having played nine offensive snaps over four career games.”. Interestingly those schools he opted out of were all military schools. He had offers from Air Force, Army and Navy. So that may mean he is looking to join the military after college. I may be wrong though.

Bryce was a “Two-time state champion at nearby Daniel High School … three-time all-region selection and two-time all-state honoree who earned 3A Upper State Lineman of the Year honors as a senior … four-year starter who helped Daniel to a 47-2 record, including a 36-game win streak … selected to the Shrine Bowl.”.

In 2023 he “Redshirted … played three snaps in collegiate debut vs. Charleston Southern … ACC Honor Roll selection.”.

In 2024 he “Played six offensive snaps over three games … played three snaps in season debut vs. Appalachian State … played one snap vs. NC State … played two snaps vs. The Citadel.”.

He is majoring in construction science and management.

62 Seasons Ago Clemson Football Finished 5-4-1 in 1963

A tale of two season halves! A less than stellar first half of the season (0-4-1) but a strong second of the season (5-0)! Including the only Clemson vs South Carolina game played on Thanksgiving Day!

More importantly:
The Clemson campus embraces integration!


Overview:

According to Wikipedia:

“The 1963 Clemson Tigers football team was an American football team that represented Clemson University in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) during the 1963 NCAA University Division football season. In its 24th season under head coach Frank Howard, the team compiled a 6–4–0 record (5–2 against conference opponents), tied for third place in the ACC, and outscored opponents by a total of 181 to 140.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1963_Clemson_Tigers_football_team


Worthy of Note:

According to ClemsonTigers.com:

“Oct. 12, 1963 – Clemson and Georgia tied 7-7, but the main item of interest was the strange weather. A hail storm hit at 2:50 p.m. and caused temperatures to plummet from 84 degrees to 57 degrees in 45 minutes. Almost an inch of hail poured in a 20-minute period and the game was delayed. Clemson blocked two field goal attempts to preserve the tie.

Nov. 23, 1963 – The South Carolina-Clemson game was postponed due to the death of President John F. Kennedy.

Nov. 28, 1963 – Clemson defeated South Carolina on Thanksgiving Day, 24-20. It was the fifth win in a row for the Tigers to close the season.”

https://clemsontigers.com/clemson-football-historical-timeline/


ClemsonWiki adds additional detail on the South Carolina game:

“November 28: The Clemson-South Carolina game is postponed until Thanksgiving out of deference to the president's funeral events on the scheduled November 24 date. Many other college football games are similarly delayed. Played in Columbia, the Tigers beat the Gamecocks, 24-20, for a 5-4-1 season, 5-2 in conference for third place in the ACC. The [Game]##### go 1-8. This remains the only Carolina game ever played on Thanksgiving.”

https://clemsonwiki.com/wiki/1963

And according to Wikipedia:

“Tracy Childers was the team captain. The team's statistical leaders included Jim Parker with 728 passing yards, Pat Crain with 513 rushing yards and 24 points scored (4 touchdowns), and Johnny Case with 232 receiving yards.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1963_Clemson_Tigers_football_team


Results:

September 21 at No. 4 Oklahoma* L 14–31
September 28 at No. 9 Georgia Tech* L 0–27
October 5 NC State L 3–7
October 12 Georgia* T 7–7
October 19 at Duke L 30–35
October 26 at Virginia W 35–0
November 2 Wake Forest W 36–0
November 9 at North Carolina W 11–7
November 16 Maryland W 21–6
November 28 at South Carolina W 24–20

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1963_Clemson_Tigers_football_team

With the win in Columbia, Clemson improves its record to 36-22-3 all-time vs the Gamechickens.

From: https://www.hoosfootball.com/Uniform_Summaries_and_GamePhotos/1963_Game_Photos.html


Also in 1963:

Clemson integrates! The first African-American Clemson student later goes on to a career in public service!

According to ClemsonWiki:

“January 28: Harvey Gantt becomes the first African-American student at Clemson as the college integrates without the friction seen on other Southern campuses. Gantt will later serve two terms as mayor of Charlotte, North Carolina. He also marries the first black Clemson coed - Lucinda Brawley. For this event, the Tiger Tavern in the Clemson House is used as a press center for the 200 journalists on hand.”

https://clemsonwiki.com/wiki/1963

ClemsonWiki also notes the assassination of President Kennedy:

November 22: President John F. Kennedy is assassinated in Dallas, Texas.

And special thanks to TS_Tiger for his 2009 TNet post providing an earlier article that describes the 1963 Clemson-UGa game. This post is absolutely worth the read:
