Clemson and Texas A&M have played just four times in football. However, Texas A&M played a part in the story of one of College Football best traditions when the Tigers and Aggies met for the very time.
When his Clemson Tigers ran out of the dressing room and onto the field at Clemson Memorial Stadium for the first time on September 8, 1973 against The Citadel, Red Parker remembered the atmosphere was pretty stale that day.
In fact, as the former Clemson head coach recalled before his passing in January of 2016, there was no energy at all in the stadium.
