Quote from notes of 1981 win over mediocre NC St. 17-7


Sep 20, 2013, 11:24 AM

Every national championship team has a
midseason game in which it is flat and
needs to overcome some doldrums
to keep the streak going. Texas had
it in 2005 when it fell behind Oklahoma State by three touchdowns in
the first half. This was Clemson’s trap
game of 1981. But it kept the unbeaten streak alive.

That NCST team won 4 games, so mediocre is being nice.

Clemson entered the N.C. State game with a
6-0 record, Clemson’s best start since 1948, and
the Tigers’ #4 national ranking by AP was their best
in history. Coming off a 38-10 win at Duke, Clemson
was flat for some reason from the outset against the
Wolfpack. It was especially surprising from an offensive
standpoint, because Clemson had gained
at least 200 yards of total offense in each of the last
five halves entering this game.

D@mn that sounds familiar

Clemson has always been snake bit against State.

I don't know why, but they have always had our number.

people say that, but yet we have won NINE out of TEN against them.

They may play us tough sometimes but we almost always win (in recent history).

I'm not sure that is a "snake bit" record

Reading the 25th Anniversary of the '81 team reminded of how I thoroughly enjoyed the Wake Forest game that year as a kid.

THANK you - you are exactly right...

I was a freshman in 1981 and I remembered having some close wins that year...and of course a really awesome DEFENSE. Go Tigers!
