Clemson Pawcast

The Clemson Tigers pulled off their biggest win of the season in Bourbon Country on Saturday as they came from behind for the second week in a row in defeating the Louisville Cardinals 30-24. In this ep, we discuss an offense that continued to show progress in posting their highest point total in an FBS game this season, and a defense that had trouble with a (healthy) Malik Cunningham, but made an...

The Clemson Tigers avoided snatching defeat from the jaws of victory on Saturday in Death Valley, as the offense was able to put together a 4th quarter, game winning drive in what was ultimately a 30-20 over the Florida State Seminoles. In this ep we reflect on an ugly, yet deceivingly improved offensive performance that was overshadowed by 3 missed field goals, while the defense continued to hold...

The Clemson Tigers continued their rapid descent from the top of the mountain on Saturday in a 27-17 loss to the #23 Pitt Panthers. The offense once again failed to crack the 20’s in regulation against an FBS opponent, and the defense was worn down in what is already a season to forget, and one that’s only barely halfway over. For the first time in a long time there’s no joy in Daboville, and whil...

The Clemson Tigers narrowly escaped defeat in the Carrier Dome on Friday night, improving to 4-2 with a 17-14 win over Syracuse. It was a familiar story storyline in this 2021 season, as the defense (and special teams) once again bailed out an offense that continues to struggle to score. And though there were some hidden bright spots on offense, Clemson fans will need to remain content with anothe...

For the first time since Hunter Renfrow walked on the Clemson football team, the Tigers are unranked after clawing their way to a 19-13 victory over Boston College on Saturday night in the Valley. And though there were some bright spots in this game, they were largely overshadowed by the fact that it wasn’t pretty, and the attrition is mounting. In this ep we focus on these aspects of both the off...

The wheels have come off for the Clemson football team as an ugly, 27-21 OT loss to N.C. State in Raleigh on Saturday drops the Tigers to 2-2 for the first time in 7 years. In this ep we discuss the structural issues plaguing this team, focusing primarily on an offense that has yet to put up more than 14 points in regulation against an FBS opponent. But though there have been brighter days in Tige...

The Clemson Tigers offense continues to sputter in a 14-8 win over Georgia Tech that looked like something from the 1940's. However the defense continues to dominate, standing as the lone bright spot for this team 3 games into the season. In this ep we primarily focus on the offense's struggles and what it may take to right the ship. Enjoy and Go Tigers!!!

Coming off of their first opening game loss in 7 years (also to Georgia), the #6 Clemson Tigers righted the ship in Death Valley on Saturday with a 49-3 victory over the S.C. State Bulldogs.

The Clemson Tigers went down to Tallahassee on Saturday looking to bounce back after their first loss of the season, only to be turned away by the FSU administration in an attempt to avoid further humiliation in a humbling first season under coach Mike Norvell Corona Virus.
