On This Date: 1982 UGA tops Clemson under Sanford Lights


Sep 6, 2017, 9:31 AM

September 6, 1982
Athens, GA

(11)Clemson - 7
(7)Georgia - 13

ABC thought so much of the September 6, 1982 contest between the previous two National Champions, they put the game on national television on Labor Day Night.






But like all big games that are over-hyped, the overall play of the two teams disappointed the country. Clemson quarterback Homer Jordan, a native of Athens, Ga., threw four interceptions in his homecoming, while Heisman Trophy contender Hershel Walker played very little due to a broken thumb. In all, there were 6 turnovers and though the game was very dramatic at times, the offenses combined for only 490 yards in the seventh-ranked Bulldogs’ 13-7 victory over No. 11 Clemson.
