1981 vs. 2015 Dates


Nov 5, 2015, 2:20 PM

Has anyone else noticed the correlation between the dates of the schedules in 1981 and 2015.

Our first game each season was September 5th.

Our open date was September 26th.

We played a game on each of the exact same dates as this year except the SCar game (only because we played one less game).

We gave up the most points on Halloween.

If this was mentioned before, I didn't see it - sorry guys!

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.

Re: 1981 vs. 2015 Dates


Nov 5, 2015, 2:32 PM

Clemson beat Miami by 58 point in 2015. The only other time they beat a conference team by 58 was Wake Forest in 1981. I think there might be some more similarities.

It will likely be at least another three or four years....

Didn't Clemson open with Wofford that year?


Nov 5, 2015, 3:33 PM

I already know the answer

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yes...and the final score was nearly identical

Heck, while we are at it: when we won the title, I was 34.


Nov 5, 2015, 4:46 PM

Now, I'm 68.....that's 34 X 2. YES LAWD, TWO.....And this would be our TITLE NUMBER FREAKING TWO!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO, DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGIC? lol

Alabama boy leading the team. Great defense. Wonder kid QB from Georgia.

We can keep the correlations going forever it seems.

A few more oddities:


Nov 5, 2015, 5:10 PM

In 1981, our coach was Danny Ford; in 2015, it's Dabo Swinney.....Neither would grace the pages of GQ magazine.

Danny Ford used to sweat a lot; Dabo Swinney uses a lot of sweat------shirts.

Danny Ford liked to chew tobacco; Dabo Swinney likes to chew fat.

Danny Ford played for the Bear; Dabo Swinney uses a bear...as BV's "hold back" guy.

Danny Ford originally coached under a guy named Pell; Dabo Swinney coaches some guys who use Pell.

Danny Ford got a farm and bought a tractor; Dabo Swinney met Kathleen...and attracked her.

OK, that's enough........lol
