Directions for ESPN's College Game Day staff as they head to Clemson this weekend!


In case you missed the Paw'in faithful cheering for their recent recognition, ESPN's College Game Day staff will be transmitting from Clem(p)son this Saturday as the 13th ranked Georgia Tech Yellowjackets take on the 12th ranked Clem(p)son Tigers @ 7:45 pm. (see directions compliments of Duane @ Palmetto Sports).

This looks to be an interesting game as the Tigers are 2nd in the ACC in defense allowing only 69.7 yards per game and Tech is 3rd allowing only 72.5 yards per game. Tech's linebacker KaMichael Hall had a career record 11 tackles against Maryland last week and will more than likely give Baby Bowden fits.

On offense, Clem(p)son leads the league with 1,754 total yards on the season and an average of 250.6 yards/g. The Tiger's paw, James Davis, scratched his way to 138 yards and 3 TDs in the blowout game against Temple (count that as 17 straight losses for the Owls). Tech is just as dangerous on offense as the Tigers as Tashard Choice put 138 yards (502 yards this season) and 1-rushing TD against Maryland last week. The 2nd leading rusher is QB Reggie Ball with 315-yards for the season.

The Bushido should have great game highlights for you Saturday night, that is, as long as special correspondents Bradford and Jake stay sober. Yeah, scratch that, I'll keep you up to date from College Game Day's replay.
