October 26, 1991 Clemson wore purple jerseys for the first time since the 1930s in a 29-19 victory over 10th-ranked (USA Today) NC State. The 18th-ranked (AP) Tigers were led by a freshman Nelson Welch, who kicked a Clemson record five field goals. Clemson scored its first touchdown on a fake field goal as Rudy Harris ran three yards for a score.
