Braggin' Rights
It rained Monday in Clemson, but for many Tiger fans it was a sun-splashed day. That is what braggin' rights are all about.
My college roommate played under Coach Ford and Coach Hatfield from 1988-1991 and never lost to South Carolina. He always said that beating South Carolina meant the next 364 days would have beautiful weather. Even when it pours rain, it still sunny for the winner.
In my formative years, Clemson won almost every year. My first Carolina-Clemson game was 1974. Clemson has won 27 times since my first one.
