We are at 93 days and counting until the Tigers kick off the 2025 football season (7:30 p.m. on ABC, Aug. 30), and the number 93 and Clemson will forever be intertwined with the name Gaines Adams.
For those who were there on that raw, rainy day in Winston-Salem, the memory of that familiar 93 rumbling for a 66-yard fumble return of a botched field goal attempt against Wake Forest in 2006 will never go away. It was a play that changed the course of the game, and helped Clemson defeat the eventual ACC Champion Demon Deacons, 27-17.
