2018 SCHEDULE/RESULTSCLEMSON TO MAKE 2018 ROAD DEBUT AT TEXAS A&M

The second-ranked Clemson Tigers will hit the road in search of the program's first win in the state of Texas since the 1959 Bluebonnet Bowl when the team faces Texas A&M on Saturday, Sept. 8. Kickoff from Kyle Field is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET.

Last week, Clemson opened its season with a 48-7 home win against Furman. Head Coach Dabo Swinney, who was celebrating his 200th career game with Clemson since joining the program as an assistant in 2003, was proud of his squad's efforts in all phases.

"We got better as the day went on and settled in," Swinney said. "The biggest thing was complementary football — offense, defense and special teams."

Indeed, all three phases contributed to the team's season opening victory. On offense, Clemson totaled 531 offensive yards, including 249 rushing yards and 282 passing yards. It represented the ninth time in Swinney’s tenure that Clemson had reached at least 245 passing yards and 245 rushing yards in a single contest.

Defensively, the Tigers held Furman to 163 yards on 62 plays, an average of 2.6 yards per play. It marked the lowest yards-per-play average allowed by Clemson since holding Auburn to 1.8 yards per play in the second week of the 2017 season.

However, the victory was jumpstarted in part by momentum-building plays on special teams. Amari Rodgers recorded 87 yards on two punt returns, including returns of 25 and 62 yards that pushed Clemson to an early 10-0 lead.

-- WHAT TO WATCH FOR --

WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEK- Clemson and Texas A&M meeting for the fifth time

in history.- Clemson playing at Kyle Field in College Station

for the third time in program history and the first time since 2004.

- Clemson playing in the state of Texas for the 12th time in school history.

- Clemson evening its all-time record in the state of Texas at 6-6 by collecting its first victory in the state since the 1959 Bluebonnet Bowl.

- Clemson earning its first victory at Kyle Field in program history.

- Clemson playing the featured College Gameday game for the 18th time in the show's history.

- Clemson improving to 11-7 in College Gameday contests. Clemson has won its last six games featured on College Gameday, dating back to 2016 (vs. Louisville, Ohio State and Alabama in 2016; vs. Louisville, Virginia Tech and Miami in 2017).

- Clemson winning its 50th road opener in program history. The Tigers are currently 49-65-8 all-time in their first road game of the year.

- Clemson winning its fourth straight road opener dating back to 2015. The 2018 senior class would become the first Clemson class to sweep all four of its road debuts since the 1989 seniors, who won all four road openers in the midst of the program's record streak of six consecutive road-opener victories from 1984-89.

- Clemson winning its fourth straight true road game against SEC opponents, which would represent the longest such streak in program history. The Tigers won road contests against South Carolina (2015 and 2017) and Auburn (2016), matching the program's longest stretch of road wins against SEC foes (three, all at South Carolina in both 1995-99 and 2003-07).

- Clemson securing its 14th victory in its last 15 true road games.

- Clemson earning its 22nd victory in its last 25 games away from home, including neutral site contests.

- Clemson opening a season 2-0 for a fourth straight year and for the eighth time in the last nine years.

- Clemson extending its winning streak in non-conference regular season play to 17 games. Dating back to 2014, Clemson's current 16-game winning streak in regular season non-conference games is already the longest such streak in program history.

- Clemson rushing for 200 yards in back-to-back games for the first time since a three-game span against Georgia Tech, NC State and Florida State in 2017. A second-straight 245-yard rushing game would give Clemson back-to-back 245-yard rushing performances since the third and fourth games of the 2017 season against Louisville and Boston College.

- Clemson posting consecutive games with at least 245 yards both in the air and on the ground for the first time since the final two games of the 2001 campaign against Duke and Louisiana Tech.

- Clemson throwing four or more touchdown passes in back-to-back games for the first time since the fifth and six games of the 2016 season against Louisville and Boston College.

- Clemson attempting to hold their first two opponents under 3.0 yards per play for a second straight season. Clemson held Kent State (2.4) and Auburn (1.8) under that figure to open the 2017 season and held Furman to 2.6 yards per play last week.

- Clemson winning the turnover margin in consecutive games for the first time since the ACC Championship Game and Fiesta Bowl during the 2016 campaign.

TIGERS IN TEXASSaturday's contest will mark Clemson's 12th game in

the state of Texas in program history. A win on Saturday would even Clemson's all-time record in the Lone Star State at 6-6.

Clemson won its first game in the state of Texas on Jan. 1, 1940 in the Cotton Bowl. The Tigers defeated Boston College, 6-3, in Clemson’s first win over a ranked team as the Eagles were ranked 11th in the nation with a 9-1 record entering the game. Frank Leahy, still the second-winningest coach in college football history with an .864 winning percentage, was the head coach at Boston College.

A win on Saturday would give Clemson its first victory in Texas since Frank Howard's 1959 Clemson squad defeated TCU, 23-7, in the Bluebonnet Bowl in Houston's Rice Stadium. That win against No. 7 TCU marked the highest-ranked team defeated by the Tigers in Howard's tenure.

-- ON THE OPPONENT --

SERIES HISTORY VS. TEXAS A&MClemson currently trails its all-time series against

Texas A&M, 1-3, but won the programs' most recent meeting at Memorial Stadium in 2005.

The 2018-19 home-and-home series between Clemson and Texas A&M represents the third such home-and-home arrangement between the two schools in history. However, while Clemson has represented the Atlantic Coast Conference in each contest, Texas A&M has represented a different conference in all three sets of home-and-home series. The Aggies swept the Tigers as members of the Southwest Conference in 1973-74, and the two teams split a pair of games in 2003-04 during Texas A&M's membership in the Big 12 Conference. The 2018-19 games will be the teams' first meetings since Texas A&M's transition to the Southeastern Conference in 2012.

Included below is an overview of all four games contested between Clemson and Texas A&M all-time, with home games listed in bold:

CLEMSON-TEXAS A&M PARALLELSDespite residing in different conferences, different

states and different time zones, the historical similarities and parallels between Clemson University and Texas A&M University are striking.

Both institutions are land-grant universities, initially founded with primary focuses in the fields of agriculture, engineering and science. Clemson was founded as the Clemson Agricultural College of South Carolina in 1889 only 13 years after classes began at the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas in 1876.

Both schools are also famed for their military heritage. Clemson was an all-military school until 1955, while Corps of Cadets participation at Texas A&M was mandatory until 1965. Outside of the United States Military Academy at West Point, no schools in the country supplied more officers to the United States Army during World War II than Texas A&M and Clemson.

Swinney's 13 wins against SEC opponents date back to his final game as an interim coach, when he defeated South Carolina and Steve Spurrier, 31-14, at Clemson. That victory led to his hiring as Clemson's full-time coach the Monday after that victory.

Swinney’s 13 non-conference wins against SEC teams are the most by any non-SEC coach since 2008. Current Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher ranks second with 10 from his tenure at Florida, and Georgia Tech's Paul Johnson ranks third with eight.

Swinney’s list of wins against SEC teams includes five over Top 25 teams, four of which have come against Auburn since 2011. Swinney’s list of wins over SEC teams include five over South Carolina (including four in a row), four over Auburn, and one each over Kentucky, LSU, Georgia and Alabama. So he has already beaten six different SEC programs in his nine previous years as Clemson head coach. A win over Texas A&M on Sept. 8 would be a seventh different SEC program.

LAST MEETING VS. TEXAS A&MClemson 25, Texas A&M 24(Sept. 3, 2005, Clemson, S.C)Jad Dean set a school record with six field goals,

including the game-winner with two seconds left to give Clemson a dramatic 25-24 win over 17th-ranked Texas A&M in the 2005 season opener at Memorial Stadium. It was Clemson’s first win over a ranked team in a season opener since 1959.

Clemson won the game without the benefit of an offensive touchdown, but did gain 396 yards of total offense (183 yards rushing and 213 passing). Clemson’s only touchdown came on a 47-yard punt return by Chansi Stuckey.

The Tigers also won the game despite an injury to fourth year starting quarterback Charlie Whitehurst. Will Proctor came off the bench to run the Clemson offense to the victory in the second half. At one point Proctor led the Tigers on a 96-yard drive that took 7:46 off the clock, leading to an 18-yard field goal by Dean.

Texas A&M took a 24-22 lead in the fourth quarter, but the Tigers had a final drive. With freshman back James Davis running the ball on eight consecutive plays at one point, the Tigers moved the ball to the Texas A&M 25. That set up a field goal attempt for Dean from 42 yards and the junior delivered for the sixth time in six attempts in the game with just two seconds left on the clock.

The kick was the latest game winner by a Tiger since 1987 (David Treadwell vs. Georgia), and he became the first Clemson player to kick six field goals in a game.

True freshman running back Davis finished with 101 yards rushing on 19 carries. He became the first Clemson freshman to rush for 100 yards in his first game since 1945 and was named the ACC Rookie of the Week. Clemson controlled the clock for 37:58, the

most time of possession for the Tigers in the Tommy Bowden era.

TAKING ATTENDANCEThe current record for the most people in attendance

for a Clemson football game at any site is 92,476, set in 2014 at Georgia's Sanford Stadium. Texas A&M's Kyle Field features a seating capacity of 102,733, making Saturday's crowd potentially the first six-figure crowd in the history of Clemson football.

Clemson has played 13 contests in front of crowds of 85,000 or more in school history. While Clemson holds only a 4-9 record in those contests, the Tigers have won each of the last three games in front of crowds of 85,000 or more, including home wins against South Carolina (2014) and Florida State (2015) and a road win at Auburn (2016).

MISCELLANEOUS RECORDS UNDER DABO SWINNEY

Lawrence in the fourth quarter.- Defensive lineman Christian Wilkins recorded a

sack in the third quarter, pushing his career total to 11.0.

- Defensive lineman Clelin Ferrell increased his career sack total to 16.5 with a sack in the third quarter.

- Defensive linemen Jordan Williams and Albert Huggins split a sack in the third quarter. The half-sack was the first of Williams’ career and pushed Huggins’ career total to 5.0.

- Linebacker Baylon Spector caused and recovered the first fumble of his career in the fourth quarter for the Tigers’ first takeaway of the year.

- Defensive lineman K.J. Henry recovered the first fumble of his career in the fourth quarter.

- Unofficially, 13 true freshmen appeared for Clemson (Xavier Thomas, Justyn Ross, Derion Kendrick, K.J. Henry, Trevor Lawrence, Kyler McMichael, Lyn-J Dixon, B.T. Potter, Mario Goodrich, Jordan McFadden, Jackson Carman, Max May and Braden Galloway). That matches the team’s most in a single game, tying the mark set against Wofford in the 2015 season opener.

- Clemson’s captains for the contest were defensive lineman Austin Bryant, quarterback Kelly Bryant, kicker Greg Huegel and linebacker Kendall Joseph.

- Clemson faced the opponent against whom the team played its first game in program history. Guided by Head Coach Walter Riggs, Clemson earned a 14-6 road victory against the Furman Purple Hurricane in the Tigers’ gridiron debut on Oct. 31, 1896.

- Despite being the 123rd season of Clemson Football, the game marked only the 118th home opener in program history as a function of five seasons in which the team did not play a home game.

-- BEST IS THE STANDARD --

TIGERS HUNTING FOUR IN A ROWClemson has won three straight ACC championships,

joining Oklahoma as one of just two Power Five Conference schools to have an active streak of three consecutive conference championships.

This season, Clemson is attempting to become the first ACC school to win four consecutive outright titles. Florida State was a champion or co-champion nine years in a row from 1992-00, but never won more than three outright championships in succession.

Clemson would become the only the second Power Five school since the advent of conference championship games in 1992 to win four straight conference championships, joining the Florida Gators, who won four straight SEC Championship Games from 1993-96.

CHASING 100Head Coach Dabo Swinney can vividly recall the

looks he received when he said Clemson was on the cusp of the winningest decade in program history following a 2010 campaign in which the Tigers finished 6-7. In 2017, that vision became a reality with two seasons to spare when Clemson collected its 88th win of the decade in the ACC Championship Game against Miami to surpass the 1980s Tigers (87) for the most wins in any decade in school history.

With 12 wins in 2018, the Clemson can reach triple digits in wins in a decade for the first time in program history.

Included below are the schools that have accomplished that feat:

POWER OVER THE POWER FIVEDuring Clemson's run of three consecutive ACC titles

and College Football Playoff berths from 2015-17, no program in the country could boast more wins against Power Five opponents than Clemson's 34.

WINS AGAINST TOP 25 FINISHERSWhile wins against teams ranked in the Top 25

carry a lot of weight in the moment, one added layer of quality assurance for victories can be gleaned from viewing teams' records against opponents that actually finished the year in the Top 25. An independent analysis by Saturday Down South revealed that Clemson's 15 victories in the College Football Playoff era against opponents that finished the season in the Top 25 ranks second nationally.

SWINNEY FOURTH COACH TO REACH 100 WINS IN FIRST 10 YEARS

When Dabo Swinney and the Tigers defeated South Carolina, 34-10, in the final regular season game of 2017, it gave Swinney 100 wins in his first 10 years as a head coach. Swinney accomplished the feat despite his first season as a head coach being limited to seven games after assuming the Interim Head Coach title six games into the 2008 campaign.

He became just the fourth coach to reach 100 wins in his first 10 years, joining Bob Stoops, Chris Petersen and Urban Meyer.

-- TALKING 'BOUT THE POLLS --

EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS Entering 2018, Clemson had equaled or exceeded its postseason AP and USA Today rankings in comparison to its preseason rankings each of the last seven years. That included quite an accomplishment in 2016, as finished No. 1 by winning the national championship to exceed the school's No. 2 preseason ranking. Clemson has exceeded its preseason ranking each of the last seven years in the USA Today coaches poll and has exceeded its preseason ranking in the AP poll six of the seven. Clemson was picked No. 8 in the AP preseason poll in 2013 and finished No. 8. Dabo Swinney is the first head coach in history with a seven-year streak in that area. John Cooper (Ohio State) and Bill Snyder (Kansas State) had five-year streaks.

-- ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT --

The roster from the first day of Clemson's 2018 preseason camp featured 17 players that had already earned their degrees from Clemson University. The figure more than doubled the previous high under Head Coach Dabo Swinney, who previously had eight graduates on his rosters on multiple occasions.

The graduates on Clemson's 2018 camp roster included Kelly Bryant, Adam Choice, Kyle Cote, J.D. Davis, Judah Davis, Justin Falcinelli, Pat Godfrey, Kendall Joseph, Chris Register, Hunter Renfrow, Milan Richard, Chad Smith, Alex Spence, Trevion Thompson, Christian Wilkins, Jalen Williams and Richard Yeargin.

Over the last seven years Clemson has finished in the top 10 percent in APR scores among FBS teams and in the top 25 of the final polls six times.

That includes the 2017-18 academic year when Clemson finished fourth on the field in the polls and fifth in APR score with a 987. It was the first time a College Football Playoff team has finished in the top five of the APR.

Last year marked the third time in the last six years that Clemson finished in the top 10 of APR and the top 10 on the field in at least one of the polls.

-- OFFENSIVE SPOTLIGHT --

#WRUClemson's status as an elite producer of pro talent

has been inarguable in recent years, particularly at wide receiver, where the school has adopted the moniker of "Wide Receiver U" (or #WRU in hashtag form).

An independent analysis by TigerIllustrated.com in August highlighted Clemson's seven wide receivers drafted from 2013-18, the most from any school. It provides a legacy and a foundation upon which Clemson's talented 2018 receiving corps — one co-offensive coordinator Jeff Scott said contains nine plausible starters — to build.

"Get your cameras ready for this year and beyond. Because there's a good chance more history will be made," wrote TigerIllustrated's Larry Williams. "The headlines and cover stories now are about the defensive line. But celebrity status is fast approaching for these receivers."

#2 KELLY BRYANT, QBSince making his Clemson debut in 2015 and

earning the starting job in 2017, Kelly Bryant has consistently embodied the virtues of ball security. The 2018 Maxwell and O'Brien Watch List selection entered the 2018 campaign ranked first in school history in

lowest percentage of passes intercepted and second in career completion percentage.

With a bachelor's degree in history now in hand after his graduation last May, Bryant will try to make some history of his own this season as he continues to climb the school's leaderboard for career completions. Among those in his crosshairs on that list this season is Bryant's own position coach, Brandon Streeter, who completed 294 passes during his own playing career from 1996-99.

#9 TRAVIS ETIENNE, RBAs a freshman, when you evoke the names of Clemson

legends C.J. Spiller and Sammy Watkins, you're doing something right. Travis Etienne did just that in his true freshman season in 2017.

In his debut year, Etienne averaged 7.16 yards per carry on 107 attempts, the fourth-best rushing average in school history and the most by a Clemson freshman since C.J. Spiller in 2006.

injury). Renfrow's 29-game streak is currently tied for the fourth-longest active streak in the FBS.

#75 MITCH HYATT, OTWhile the return of the members of Clemson's

ballyhooed defensive line generated a majority of the team's offseason headlines, Clemson's offensive line returned its own first-team All-American in left tackle Mitch Hyatt. In July, Hyatt was the leading vote-getter in the preseason All-ACC selection process, appearing on a conference-high 130 of 148 possible ballots, 28 more votes than ACC Preseason Player of the Year AJ Dillon.

Hyatt, a three-year letterman out of Suwanee, Ga., entered the 2018 campaign with 43 games, 42 starts and 2,885 snaps to his credit, helping Clemson to an ACC title and College Football Playoff berth in each of his first three seasons.

GO GO POWER RANGERS:#7 AUSTIN BRYANT, #42 CHRISTIAN WILKINS, #90 DEXTER LAWRENCE AND #99 CLELIN FERRELL

Neither short on personality nor on production, Clemson returns all four starters on its defensive line in 2018. The group, known affectionately as the Power Rangers following the unit's Halloween costumes of choice in 2016, includes ends Austin Bryant and Clelin Ferrell and tackles Dexter Lawrence and Christian Wilkins.

The group's return alone made college football history. Clemson's 2018 squad will be the first in the sport's history to feature four returning All-Americans on the defensive line.

#3 AMARI RODGERSClemson entered the 2018 season looking to replace

primary 2017 punt returner Ray-Ray McCloud, who ranked seventh in the FBS in punt return average (12.1) a season ago. In camp, wide receiver Amari Rodgers separated as the team's top option at punt returner, and Rodgers immediately rewarded the coaching staff's faith in the team's 48-7 season-opening win vs. Furman.

Rodgers' first return of the game went for 25 yards, setting up an ensuing drive that saw him score the team's first points of the season on a 40-yard touchdown reception. On his next return, Rodgers recorded a career-long 62-yard return to finish the day with a 43.5-yard return average.

Through Week 1, Clemson ranks No. 1 in the FBS in punt return average, and Rodgers ranks No. 2 in the category among individual averages.

#92 GREG HUEGEL, KAll three phrases of the game — offense, defense

and special teams — are represented by former All-Americans on Clemson's roster. Among the specialists, kicker Greg Huegel returns after an injury-truncated 2017 season hoping to reclaim that form that earned him second-team All-America status from Sports Illustrated in 2015.

The 2016 All-ACC selection already ranks in the Top 10 in school history in scoring, field goals made and extra points made.

GAME STATS

CLEMSON, S.C. — No. 2 Clemson opened its 2018 campaign in dominant fashion, defeating the Furman Paladins by a score of 48-7 at Memorial Stadium.

Offensively, the Tigers amassed 531 yards, leading a balanced attack that eclipsed 250 passing yards and 250 rushing yards on the day. On the defensive side of the ball, the Tigers limited the Paladins to just 2.6 yards per play and 163 total yards.

The Tigers opened the scoring midway through the first quarter on a Kelly Bryant 40-yard touchdown pass to Amari Rodgers, marking the first career score for the sophomore wideout. Bryant would later add a 35-yard rushing touchdown as well, while Rodgers would finish the contest with a career-high 141 all-purpose yards, including 87 yards on two punt returns.

Freshman quarterback Trevor Lawrence threw three touchdown passes in his debut, hitting Diondre Over-ton, Justyn Ross and Braden Galloway for touchdowns in the second, third and fourth quarters, respectively.

Clemson's shutout bid was denied with just over a minute remaining in the game, when Furman scored on a 16-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Darren Grainger to Ryan DeLuca.

Clemson kicker Greg Huegel recorded 11 points in his return from a knee injury, connecting on two field goals (including a career-high-tying 49-yarder) and five of the team's six PATs on the day.
