CLEMSON – The last time Clemson played Stanford, head coach Dabo Swinney was shooting jumpers for the Pelham Panthers in Alabama. The second meeting is this week in Death Valley on Homecoming.
Clemson faces the Cardinal Saturday at 7 pm on ESPN. The only meeting between the two programs occurred in December of 1986, a 27-21 Clemson victory in the Gator Bowl. Stanford is now a part of the ACC and made the trip east last week to defeat Syracuse last Friday.
There is more orange in their future this week, and Clemson stands as a 21.
