Clemson claimed back bragging rights in the Palmetto State on Saturday night with a 16-7 victory over rival South Carolina at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia.
The Tigers (8-4) won their 73rd game in the series and 54th in Columbia all-time while beating the Gamecocks (5-7) for the eighth time in the last nine games of the series.
As you’d expect, there were no shortage of reactions on social media to Clemson’s rivalry win. Check out some of what they’re saying below:
