CLEMSON – Saturday’s rivalry game against South Carolina has national implications, but for running back Phil Mafah, the game means one last chance to shine in Death Valley.
He will also be building on his career resume.
During an early carry last week against The Citadel, Mafah broke the 1,000-yard barrier for the first time in his career. He then moved to the sideline to watch the kids play and ponder the achievement.
“It feels great. That was definitely one of my goals this year to reach that, but got to give credit to the team,” Mafah said.
