out Clemson in each end zone? You can see it in the panoramic pic posted on the front page. I wonder if it's just for this game of going forward from now on...

It's block lettering, but definitely not traditional

It's got a very modern look to it. Some of the letters have serif highlights on them, for instance, and traditional block letters did not sub the paw for the "O".
That being said, I think they look awesome and I hope we use them for more than just the UGA game.

Brick just doesn't feel right in a stadium that's filled with orange.

Also, It's hard to say with 100% certainty but chances are I'm in that photo. The marching band uniforms appear to be the ones that the band started wearing in 1993 (the black pants give it away--the immediately prior uniform had cream pants for home games), and Clemson stopped using the block letters either during or right after I graduated in 1995. So if all that lines up, I'd be part of the top of the "T".
Anyone remember when they stopped using block letters? It had to be mid-90's. Seems like they changed it right around the same time they changed the university seal, which was either the year I graduated or the year after.

You must be too young to know but that's what the letters used to look like "back in the day"...or the glory days of Clemson football.
Don't mean to be disrespectful by any means, just pointing it out.....
