1952 Clemson-SC Game mandated by South Carolina law...


Aug 3, 2020, 5:37 PM

The Southern Conference (SoCon) almost brought the longstanding rivalry to an abrupt end when it ordered Clemson to play no other league team other than Maryland as punishment for both schools accepting bowl bids against conference rules (both Clemson and SC were members at the time). Upon request of both schools' presidents, the S.C. General Assembly passed a resolution on February 27, 1952, ordering the game to be played. The SoCon reacted to the game by attempting to suspend Clemson, leading seven member schools, including Clemson and SC, to leave the league and form the Atlantic Coast Conference in May 1953.

Is this resolution not still on the books?

The Tigers and Gamecocks must play in 2020. The second longest rivalry, especially between
two state schools, is necessary for killing this covid-10 shutdown.
