They’ll also play Limestone in an exhibition on Sunday at 2 p.m. Admission is free to both events, and the program welcomes your support!

Football (@ClemsonFB)Record: 7-1, 5-1 ACCThe Clemson football team ran its record to 7-1 with a 40-27 victory at Maryland Saturday. It was the seventh consecutive victory away from home for the Tigers, the longest streak of its kind in 35 years.
Rod McDowell had a career high 161 yards rushing and two touchdowns, while Sammy Watkins had a school record 14 receptions for 163 yards. It marked the first time Clemson had a 160-yard receiver and rusher in the same game.
The defense allowed -9 yards of total offense after Clemson’s three turnovers, and allowed just six points after the offensive miscues, a key to the victory.
