Memorial Stadium will feel different on Saturday afternoon with a capacity of 19,000 socially distant fans and piped in crowd noise. But for top-ranked Clemson the emotions ahead of the home opener are at a fever pitch.
Freshman Bryan Bresee will start his first ever game at Death Valley. The defensive tackle recorded three tackles, a half sack and a blocked field goal in the Tigers’ win over Wake Forest last week.
Now Bresee eagerly awaits his first game at home and first college game in front of fans after North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper refused to allow fans in stadiums for the season opener in Winston-Salem.
