@tigerray what team is it that Clemson is playing starting at 0:31?

[tigerray]

@bjwilliamsnjackbauer I think that's Wake Forest.

I miss the guys who wore the orange Virginia uniforms like Shawn Moore, Terry Kirby, Chris Slade, Matt Blundin, Herman Moore, Ray Roberts, etc. I don't miss the uniform itself. The uniform should have stayed about where it was in 1998 with the classy number and pergola collar. They've become much less distinctive since Groh "NFL-ified" them.

They brought back the old U-Va. unis this past season when they played Richmond. Even though I am a Maryland fan, related to this video, I still think that Clemson has one of the best traditions in the ACC yet alone in the country. As for U-Va., I remember seeing some great players as well wearing the old Wahoo unis that included Don Majkowski, yes the guy before Brett Farve in Green Bay. The ACC needs to have a week where every team wears throwback unis. Any suugestions?

As a Clemson fan I REALLY dislike this clip.... don't know what went on that day (heard it was at CBS"s request) but as you can see, Tiger Band hasn't even started forming the tunnels or anything when they run down the hill. As a former member, that bothers me a lot. Oh well.

Oh, BTW, Tina Fey's Alma Mater had THE greatest Uniforms and Logo in College Football during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Too bad they had to change them.

I was at this game. Even got to meet the late great Banks McFadden after this game. Hope Dabo and staff can get Clemson back to the days of the Ford era.

I miss these old school intros. They were simple and to the point and got you into the mood of the game before the opening kickoff. College football back then seemed to be more simple and locally and old school fun. Now its all corporate and over bloated especially on ESPN. Do we really need to know who is signing on to what school or having the university's annual spring practice games on?

Apparently, you don't realize I'm a Hokie. We finished in the top 10.
