Yay Clemson Girls!! Football season is finally here. Do you know how every year there is a team that flies under the radar? A team that many pick to have a good but not great season and that team turns out to have an extra special year and be one of the top teams in the country? Well this year that team is Clemson! I believe that this will be an extraordinary season and I cannot wait for 3:30 Saturday to kick our season off.
Football is won in the trenches—plain and simple. This year prognosticator Phil Steele ranked Clemson’s defensive line second best in the country and our offensive line seventh best in the country. We have enjoyed a great defensive line for several seasons now but this is without a doubt the best offensive line we have fielded in years. If these two units can stay relatively injury free this season Clemson will have an excellent year.
Many analysts consider the big question marks on the 2010 Tigers to be our linebackers and receivers; however I feel very confident in these two units. The linebackers have significantly improved over last year’s unit and the wide receivers, while young and untested, are extremely talented. They also have a terrific quarterback throwing balls to them. Make no mistake, Tajh Boyd will be an amazing Quarterback at Clemson, but having Kyle Parker return was huge! His first season found him a freshman All-American and leading his team to the conference championship—I cannot wait to see what his second season brings.
The other question that has been asked a million times this off season is how does Clemson replace CJ Spiller? The answer is you don’t. CJ was a once in a lifetime player and you are not going to find any one player to do everything he did as well as he did. But our running game is in excellent shape. Jamie Harper and Andre Ellington will be sharing starts and carries and they will be one of the most explosive one two punches in college football. They will both have break out seasons this year. And backing them up is Roderick McDowell, who has had an outstanding spring and summer. Another player to watch out for this season is Tight End Dwayne Allen. He will leave Clemson as the best Tight End in school history and will be Kyle Parker’s primary target.
Defensively we are loaded this year. As I stated earlier the linebacking corp is much improved and our defensive line and secondary are among the best in football. We return starting All-American safeties DeAndre McDaniel and Rashard Hall. Having McDaniel and tackle Jarvis Jenkins turn down NFL opportunities was huge for our defense. DaQuan Bowers is going to have a sensational season this year. Another name to look out for is Corico Hawkins. He is young but a devastating hitter and a real leader on this defense. Look for him to have a break out sophomore season.
The kicking unit is the big cause of concern for me—if they can be a real asset this year the sky is the limit for this team. Punter Dawson Zimmerman has had an outstanding camp-if he can carry that over into the games he will be putting our defense in great situations. The kicking battle was finally won by walk on Chandler Catanzaro. He has been money in practice from 45 yards and has the leg to kick 50. Seeing consistency in the kicking game this year would guarantee a special year at Clemson.
North Texas brings a talented squad and a great running back to Death Valley this Saturday, but the next two games should be won handily. We should have the starters out by half time and the second and third units should get two halves of quality snaps. I think Dabo has one of the great secrets in college football this year and I cannot wait to watch it revealed! Go Tigers!

The Upstate Women’s Show, a three-day event of shopping, education and entertainment for women, starts at noon today and runs through this Saturday until 7 pm. You can experience fashion shows, cooking demonstrations from popular chefs, speakers on clipping coupons and other money saving ideas. Visit the official Web site for more details on times and admission.
We wanted to remind you that the Game Day Divas will have a booth (#549) at the event and are offering all Clemson Girls the opportunity to get 20% off of any of their items by using this special coupon. Tommi and Lynn emailed me yesterday and mentioned that they’ve gotten even MORE Clemson items in stock and will have them for purchase at their booth. (Click the coupon below to see a larger, printable version)
In last week’s post about the Upstate Women’s Show, we featured some of Game Day Divas Diva Jewels – the adorable charms you can use to create your own unique Clemson jewelry. Game Day Divas has gotten some great new Diva Jewels in stock, including Dabo Swinney’s saying “All In”. You can also proudly display your crown of “Tailgate Queen” or use the newest mini initial bubbles and create your monogram. They’ve also got a new Tiger bubble charm that has hooks on both sides so you can link it in a bracelet, and I like the fun, 3D glitter boxes in orange and purple.
The Game Day Divas have also received a new shipment of flat wallets. The new, thicker style is great if you’re looking to carry more on game days. And the mini-wallet/mobile phone carrying all is perfect for Clemson Girls who want to carry just the basics on game day: your phone, credit cards, license, and cash.
Stella & Dot carries a large collection of charms in addition to the ones above…including alphabet, birthstone, inspirational and whimsical charms.
And don’t forget your little Clemson girls on Valentine’s Day – surprise them with gameday jewelry of their own. Stella & Dot has a little girls’ jewelry line too – this purple flower necklace is so cute!
