"This is going to be a great week. Our team is excited, our coaches are excited, it's going to be a great challenge for us. Obviously Clemson is a very good football team dating back to last year. Their starting quarterback(Kyle Parker) is returning which is big for them. He's got a whole host of other really good players around him. Defensively they're very physical, as has been the nature of Clemson over the years. It's just going to be a great time for us. Our fans are extremely excited and our players are very fired up to get the week rolling. It's going to be a great challenge for us and it's going to be a great measuring stick in my opinion for where we are moving forward, and getting ready for more conference play. It's an exciting time for us and an exciting time for our fans and we're looking forward to getting ready for Saturday."
Coach Chizik worked at Clemson as a graduate assistant...
"It was just one of those unique times in your life where you got an opportunity. I was a high school coach and Danny Ford gave me an opportunity to be on that staff as a graduate assistant. It was just the right place and right time. It was a great time in my life. I spent two years there and had a great two years there. It just got me propelled into the college football scene which was big for me at that time."
