[QUOTE="Heisman's Ghost, post: 605631, member: 4015"] Yep. We lead the series because even when Clemson had good teams under Coach Howard, they always seemed to have bad luck at Grant Field. That Frank Howard was something else. One year they were set to open against Alabama when the Bear had small players who were extremely quick while Clemson had the big country boys and lacked speed. Coach Howard complained that the Bear was sandbagging about his players' weights and wanted to check out Alabama's scales. (Understand this was all in fun and the sportswriters were just eating it up as they did most things about the "Bashful Baron of Barlow Bend" Anyway, the Bear goes along with it and instructs his managers to somehow rig the scales so that they would be 25lbs less than would show on the meter. Frank gets on the scale and looks in astonishment (probably feigned for the benefit of the writers) and says: "Hell, Bear these scales are correct after all" He could be funny without even trying.
