When looking at the Clemson-Georgia Tech series, the overall record can be a bit misleading.
The Yellow Jackets own a 51-30-2 lead in the all-time series. However, from 1902-1973, every game was played in Atlanta, where the Yellow Jackets built their lead with a 33-7 record in those 40 games.
Of Clemson’s seven wins, four came in the first six games at Georgia Tech. In fact, the Tigers won six of the first eight meetings overall between the two schools, including one tie. The first two games in the series were played in Augusta (1898) and in Greenville (1899), both Clemson victories.
