Clemson, S.C. - An overcast afternoon here at Clemson's Memorial Stadium with a light drizzle. A lot of ponchos (orange ones, remarkably).

A couple updates: First-year freshman wide receivers Harland Howell and Christian Philpott are dressed, as are wide receiver Micheal Summers and defensive tackle Patrick Gamble. Georgia Tech will be the healthiest it's been since the Notre Dame game.

I always find the Death Valley name funny, because the stadium is kind of on the top of a hill.

Very curious to see what happens next.
