I still can't quite comprehend this perfect season for the Clemson Tigers. I have been going to Clemson games since I was about 3 years old and been through so many mediocre seasons and coaches, some really good seasons and coaches but now we are 13-0, a perfect regular season, with in my opinion the best coach there is out there. Not only is he an awesome football coach, but such an incredible guy! I will be the first to say I was very skeptical when they hired him to be our coach after he had been the interim coach that finished out the season that Tommy Bowden left. But I am ALL IN and have been for a few years now! Who else can decide to have a pizza party in Death Valley off the cuff and have 30,000 fans show up!?!
Barrett and I went to the Clemson/Carolina game in Columbia after Thanksgiving and though it was way too close for comfort, we WON, and when dealing with your rival that is all that matters!! And sweet Champs is learning early and has mastered yelling "Beat the Gamecocks!!" just in time!!
This past weekend we went to Charlotte for the ACC Championship game against North Carolina. My brother went with us and we had a great time. The stadium was about 65/35 Clemson fans! It was awesome. I was so proud of our team! We did give us some stupid plays and almost beat ourselves with some penalties, but we were definitely the better team and came out on top!! On to the College Football Playoffs in Miami!
My run with the Tigers will have to end here, as I am 33 weeks pregnant as of today and will be 36 weeks by the time we play in Miami vs. Oklahoma on Dec 31! Barrett will be representing our family and we'll be saying (in the words of Champs) "BEAT THE SOONERS!!" from Columbia!!
