Palmetto Bowl: By The Numbers

Clemson followed suit from the last couple years and got another Palmetto Bowl win at Williams Bryce stadium.  Despite the score, this game was not as close as it would appear.  Outside of 2 very poor plays that lead to 2 Gamecock touchdowns, the Tigers’ defense dictated the game from start to finish. Let’s take […]

ACC Power Rankings Post-Rivalry Week

The ACC went 2-2 against the SEC on rivalry week, but the real story is SMU’s loss opened the door for a doomsday scenario for the conference where the champion misses the playoff. Definitive Worst in the ACC 17. Syracuse (3-9 [1-7] Prev 17): When you’re getting blown out at home to Boston College, you’re in […]

Scouting Report: South Carolina Gamecocks

The Palmetto Bowl brings out a different version of both teams, and Clemson knows better than to judge South Carolina solely by the numbers. The Gamecocks have been erratic all season—dangerous in spurts, frustrating in most others—but rivalry games reward volatility and punish mistakes. With Clemson patching together a makeshift offensive line and South Carolina […]

Clemson Basketball Preview: Alabama A&M

Date: Friday, Nov 28Tip Time: 7:00 PMGame Location: Clemson, SC – Littlejohn ColiseumTV: ACC Network Extra (ESPN3) Gauging Clemson So Far I predicted Clemson to finish 22-8 (12-6) and sneak into the NCAA tournament. That seemed optimistic at the time, given they’d lost all the contributors from last year’s squad but Dillon Hunter. So far, that optimism is […]

Louisville Analytics Analysis: Overcoming Adversity At Every Turn

Clemson’s 20–19 win over Louisville becomes much clearer when you break the game down beyond the box score and into the underlying situational metrics. The Tigers were outgained and struggled on third down, but they quietly won critical margins such as points off turnovers, field position, discipline and high-leverage special teams plays.

Syracuse (3-7 [1-6] Prev 17): Syracuse was off this week. They’ll go to South Bend to face Notre Dame next week and it will probably get ugly. 16. Boston College (1-10 […]

Clemson Basketball Loses Physical Battle at Georgetown

Clemson traveled to Washington DC for their first major test of the young basketball season, and we were treated to a fun, physical basketball game. Georgetown came out swinging, playing extremely aggressive defense and seemingly flustering the Clemson offense. If not for a missed FT and missed open 3-pointer, the Hoyas could have built a […]
