Welcome back to the latest edition of the Ottawa.

I am Bruce Feldman, joined as always by Stuart Mandel.

It was another wild weekend in college football.

Stu, I know you were down at Clemson.

Have you crossed back into the West Coast time zone yet?

You know, technically my body never really left it because it was such a late night on Saturday

night.

But you know, first trip to Clemson as advertised, Death Valley lived up to the hype and

then some.

Such a loud stadium, such a great atmosphere Saturday night.

And then if you're going to travel cross country for a game, you can only hope that it's as memorable as that one.

Yeah.

You know what?

The drama, you know, we've all seen it before with the bus ride and everything.

And I thought ESPN does a really good job.

I don't say hyping that element of the game, but just showcasing it is probably the best way to put it.

And it gets you charged up, and the crowd shots were pretty awesome.

I thought the game certainly lived up to the expectations.

Anything surprised you about the whole day and the whole game?

A couple of things.

I wouldn't have guessed that Clemson would have as much success as they did

shutting down Lamar Jackson in the first half.
