Jan. 18, 2006

Greenville, SC–Carolina Panthers starting defensive tackle Brentson Buckner will hold a live chat on his internet site, brentsonbuckner.com, and on goupstate.com, this Thursday, January 19 at 6:00 PM. Buckner will preview the upcoming NFC Championship game against Seattle through questions from fans who take part in the live chat.

Buckner is in his 12th year in the NFL and is looking to play in his third Super Bowl. He played in the Super Bowl against Dallas at the conclusion of the 1995 season with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and in the Super Bowl at the conclusion of the 2003 season with the Panthers against the New England Patriots.

The former two-time All-ACC tackle with Clemson will also answer questions concerning the Tigers and college football. This past season he was the only active NFL player to have a vote in the Harris Interactive Poll, one of the polls that was used to determine the teams that played in the BCS Championship Bowl games.
