  • Clemson failed to score a touchdown in a 34-3 loss to No. 1 ranked Georgia in a result that has raised concerns about the program's national title viability under Swinney's direction
  • Joey Aguilar threw for 326 yards and 2 touchdowns and ran for 2 more scores as Appalachian State took care of East Tennessee State in the opener
