I love this Heisman story about Clemson......


Dec 28, 2012, 6:40 PM

Heisman is also known for some notorious pranks. While coaching at Clemson in 1902, his team traveled to Atlanta for a game against Georgia Tech and began partying upon arrrival . When Georgia Tech heard that the Clemson squad had spent the night before the game carousing, they prepared to coast to an easy win but Clemson routed them 44-5. Turns out the “team” that everyone had seen partying wasn’t the Clemson squad at all. Heisman had sent his junior varsity players to Atlanta to serve as drunken decoys, then quietly slipped his varsity team in on a morning train right before the game.
