College Experience – P.A.W. Journey Spotlight (clemsontigers.com)

Note: The following appears in the NC State football gameday program. Too many young people endure their college experience instead of enjoying it.

This is the vision of P.A.W. This “stopping and smelling the roses” mindset is the embodiment of P.A.W. College is not meant to be a burden, it is meant to lead to personal and professional elevation. “‘College’ reminds me to have fun with my brothers and enjoy these moments,” added Jake Briningstool. Journey’s purpose is to prevent them from falling victim to this challenge by equipping them to make the most of their college experience. Journey encourages those it serves to internalize this understanding as they embark on their journeys. Journey ambassador who has interned with Adobe, Pepsi and Synnex, defined it this way. To find enjoyment in where you are and where you are headed, and to seamlessly transition into the world ready to continue seeking that fulfillment…that is “College.” It is important to not become so consumed with the physical health needed for achievement in football that they neglect the mental and emotional health needed for excellence in their daily lives. Too many young people endure their college experience instead of enjoying it. Thus, for Clemson’s football scholar-athletes, P.A.W. With the demands on a student-athlete’s time and the pressures to be great at every turn, it is easy to fall victim to the college experience becoming a check-the-box obligation for a well-paying job.

Victory against N.C. State puts bull's-eye squarely on Clemson ... (Greenville News)

The victory against N.C. State gives Clemson football a leg up in ACC Atlantic Division race and puts a bull's-eye squarely on Tigers' back again.

The Tigers are 5-0, including a 3-0 mark in the ACC, and face back-to-back road trips to Boston College and Florida State before returning home for four of their final five games. The Tigers get Syracuse at home on Oct. The importance of Clemson’s six-point win at Wake Forest last week can’t be overstated after the Demon Deacons strolled into Tallahassee, Florida, and knocked out the previously undefeated Seminoles 31-21 Saturday. “It was their first-ever Top 10 matchup,” Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said of the Wolfpack. Clemson’s latest triumph not only extended the nation’s longest active home winning streak to 37 games but also put a bull’s-eye squarely on the Tigers’ back yet again. It’s a familiar perch, and one to which Clemson and its high-demand fan base have grown accustomed.

Three things we learned about NC State football in 'big missed ... (Raleigh News & Observer)

NC State Wolfpack was No. 10 in latest AP poll ahead of loss to No. 5 Clemson Tigers. NC State football vs Florida State Seminoles next.

The coming weeks likely will be a test of leadership for the Pack. The blitzes will be coming. State had a net of 34 yards against the Tigers, whose front seven on D are the best in the ACC and one of the best fronts in the country. The rush will be coming. One option for the Wolfpack would be deciding on the best couple of receivers to complement Thomas, who had a game-high nine catches for 84 yards. It was apparent the linebacker still was hurting and angry about the way the No.

Clemson football: 4 things we learned about Tigers ahead of Week 6 ... (ClutchPoints)

Head coach Dabo Swinney anticipated a rugged and physical contest, and he was spot on. Remember that entering this game, North Carolina State's defense was ...

Uiagalelei completed 21-of-30 passes for 209 yards and a score while running for 73 yards and two touchdowns against one of the greatest defenses in the country. State was unable to run and was unable to halt the run in important times. When you consider all of the hatred and adversity that a person like Uiagalelei has suffered before this season, this kind of performance is even more astounding. Uiagalelei and the Tigers’ attack put up a strong showing against one of the greatest defenses in the country. To illustrate, Beaux Collins dropped a stunning deep pass from Uiagalelei in the fourth quarter, thus ending the game. The win enabled Clemson football to improve to 3-0 in the ACC. If they can continue to do this, Boston College will be in for a very tough game next week. Defensive end Myles Murphy had his finest game of the season. Clemson’s wideouts have a long way to go before the Tigers can call themselves a complete offense. QB Uiagalelei was not spectacular on the ground but made some critical runs, including a nine-yard dash to seal the game in the fourth quarter. In this game, however, the Tigers secondary performed admirably against the Wolfpack. The most highly anticipated ACC game of the season so far turned out to be the setting for No.

After top 10 win over NC State, is Clemson football officially a ... (The State)

Did Clemson win? DJ Uiagalelei and Tigers faced North Carolina State in AP Top 25 showdown with a 30-20 score ahead of Boston College.

On the season, he’s up to 242 rushing yards (48.4 yards per game) and three scores. Clemson’s 37th straight home win tied 1992-2001 Florida State for the longest streak in ACC history. State 30-20 on Saturday night,](https://www.thestate.com/sports/college/acc/clemson-university/article266679816.html) Clemson’s certainly trending in that direction. His nine-yard jump ball catch via Uiagalelei put Clemson up two scores in the third quarter (a final margin that held). A week after catching six passes for 72 yards and a touchdown against Wake Forest, Briningstool had four for 54 and a touchdown against N.C. Among Wake Forest injury holdovers, safety Andrew Mukuba (elbow) played, though his impact was diminished after a first-half targeting call. The second, a nine-yard naked bootleg, bouncing back after getting “baptized” against Wake Forest, or defensive end KJ Henry scrapping to secure a game-icing fumble, the little tweaks in big moments led the way. State for an ACC record-tying 37th straight home win and remain squarely in the College Football Playoff conversation. That’s peaked over the last two weeks with consecutive wins over ranked divisional opponents. Clemson’s defense led the way in a season-opening win against Georgia Tech. An evolving offense flashed against Furman and Louisiana Tech before flat-out carrying Clemson in last weekend’s 51-45 double overtime win against then-No.

Clemson improved to 5-0 Saturday as Dabo Swinney and the Tigers walked away from Death Valley hosting ESPN's College GameDay with a 30-20 statement win over ...

Whether you love or hate Clemson, there’s no denying that Death Valley is one of the best atmospheres in college football. When it comes down to a Clemson defense, the unit lives and dies by the productivity of their defensive line. The junior quarterback is playing the best football of his career, and it does not look like things will slow down. After a shaky Week 4 performance against Sam Hartman and Wake Forest, Wes Goodwin and the Clemson defense turned things around in a big way against NC State starting quarterback Devin Leary and the Wolfpack offense. Syndication: The Greenville News It was a massive performance from both Tigers’ offense and defense as both units showed up for the Clemson faithful.

What We Learned From Clemson's Division-Controlling Win over ... (Clemson Maven)

"Great teams can win in different ways," Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said. "You know it's not always the same pitch. You've got to be able to hit the ...

Want to join in on the discussion? But it was the Tigers who controlled the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, and they proved they can handle this kind of game. This was a game of trenches, which is exactly what NC State wanted and the way it wanted to win. 22 to have a shot at winning the division. The O-line has improved each and every week, and the five starters have finally built chemistry and cohesion. The defensive line turned it loose and greatly impacted the game, something they did not do a week ago for much of the game. It played like it had something to prove to itself, not to the rival. The "next man up" mentality gets overused, but Clemson proved it had enough guys to do so. The Tigers also overcame losses in the secondary and won without key defensive tackle Bryan Bresee. But this season has shown a renewed appreciation and sense of what it takes to win football games. You've got to be able to hit the fastball, curveball, change-up, you got to have them all. Somewhere along the line, the offense like last week, it's gonna have to go win it.
