Beamer asked his fans to show up and support the Gamecocks against Clemson in the annual rivalry game. Clemson shut out South Carolina 30-0 in dominating fashion in Williams-Brice Saturday night.
“Congratulations to Clemson. They played great, especially defensively. They played lights out defensively. There's a reason they held Georgia to three points,” Beamer said. “That was the defense we saw out there tonight.
