CLEMSON – The most exciting 25 seconds in college football.
Brent Musberger coined the phrase that describes Clemson’s iconic entrance into Death Valley during the 1980s, and only those fortunate enough to be a player, coach, or support staff will ever know the thrill of running down the hill with 80,000 orange-clad fans at full throat.
Even seniors like Sean Pollard still get chills as they exit the bus and see Death Valley from the top of the hill, in all its fall glory.
The players, coaches and support staff go through pregame warmups on the field, retreat to the home locker room for final preparation and then head out of the locker room to the buses.
