good question

I had two little girls at that point. Knee deep in tea parties....no football .
Amphitheater would make most sense - if they would be allowed to I suppose.

Heck, maybe we could join them. aTm and Clemson Yell practice in Columbia the night before our game. That would be pretty #### funny.

Excellent news. Good matchup.
As Scar falls back into irrelevance, we definitely need these marquee OOC games to help our strength of schedule.

Should be a good match up; both schools are trending upward.

Sumlin stays in College Station as long as A&M will have him
Oct 23, 2014, 8:46 PM

He basically has an unlimited budget and will be playing in the biggest stadium in the SEC.

UGA and the western side of the SEC is what we need to offset the media bias.
Oct 23, 2014, 9:00 PM
|
|
Now if we can do something similar with a BIG or Big 12 team in those same years, then keep a local charity tune-up game our schedule would be perfect, IMO.

Since the word about A&M-Oregon being cancelled...
Oct 23, 2014, 9:13 PM
|
|
someone on the board inquired about the possibility of Clemson-Oregon. As much as I would've loved to see that match-up, can't really sneeze at this one. Would love to see if I could swing a trip to College Station and if any of the meetings are like the one I got to watch in '05 in Death Valley, could be a couple good games to watch.

Really excited about this series. Great fans, great venue, cool little college town. I know its 5 years in advance but I recommend to any Clemson fan, that you will really enjoy college station...Picture a flat Clemson, and you have College Station

I love going back to Clemson. I love TD's, todaros, and Tiger Town Tavern....which is why I also like college station. If college station is basic, I love basic

for about a year and a half I have noticed a lot of A&M arrogance about the SEC and their new stadium and everything. They are very concerned with name and periphery stuff rather than product. Now I have only been to College Station once so far. Perhaps I should go again

Being married to an Aggie,it sounds like you haven't taken the time to understand them. Yes, their obsession with UT is obnoxious, but their being in the SEC is not what gives them identity.

I'm a native Texan, went to Clemson, and now back in Texas. I'm really looking forward to this series! A&M is a great school with great traditions - yes, they're obsessed with their school, which I think is a good thing.
The SEC issue with them is that they were always the younger brother of UT (that's the real UT, Texas and not Tennessee, for everyone back in South Carolina). Now that they jumped from the Big 12, the obnoxious SEC chants are merely trying to find ways to one-up Texas.
Go Tigers!

I'm sure College Station is nice, but can you imagine how great it would be to complete the home and home and travel to Laramie in 2022.

They beat our 1966 team 30-0 and (in an effort to run up the score) they tried for and failed going for 2 points after each and every score (true story) ... would love to see them come to Clemson.

This is a side benefit of the SEC's recent mandate to play

[ in reply to Why can't we play someone new. Maybe a Pac 12 / Big 12 team?*** ] |

quality OOC opponents. They're still scared to leave their home territory, so they're looking this way for opponents. They know Clemson will play anyone anytime, plus it's great ROI for them, so we get the advantage of SEC teams knocking on our door with increasing frequency.
Unfortunately it also means we get to deal with SEC arrogance on an even more frequent basis, but it gives us the major matchups we clamor for.
