Easy Friday Tiger trivia question


May 6, 2016, 4:31 PM

A few years ago Clemson opened its season by playing a game coached by one of the most successful and awarded coaches in America. Does anyone remember this 59-0 win and the coach. I bet many of you saw the game. I certainly did

Was it Florida Atlantic with Howard Schnellenberger(spelling?) as the head coach.

As I recall, Mr Allen was the Rams coach for a few years but the Skins is where his fame was began

Often called the hardest working man in football

Many believe his sudden death in 1990 was caused by a Gatorade bath after the teams final win against UN LV

That was the Hatfield days of Clemson football
I think the next year Hatfield brought Ina defensive back coach named Dickerson who proceeded to ruin our defense
Not sure about the date but I was glad to see Dickerson leave!

As I remember Dickerson moved on to Temple as head coach and proceeded to destroy them...he was awful...but not as bad as Steele in my opinion....even Reggie smoked Steele

George Allen, though he didn't coach the Raiders.

One of my earliest memories is watching Doug Thomas return the second half kickoff for a TD.

I remember it well...

George Allen. Do you remember that he coached that game wearing shorts? First and last time I've seen an opposing coach wearing shorts on the sideline.

Probably one of his paranoid moments. Wasn't he a little weird about things. I recall him accusing teams of spying on his practices to the point of him hiring security to keep the spy's away

Long Beach State


May 6, 2016, 7:26 PM

Wasn't that Hatfield's first game as HC at Clemson?
