2009: We will rock you

This may be the single greatest moment in Clemson football history vs. Florida State.

In 2009, there was an electricity in the air at Death Valley when the Tigers took the field for the fourth quarter against the Florida State Seminoles.

This one still gives me chills.

It was one of the loudest nights in Memorial Stadium you can imagine and the Tigers came away with a 40-24 win led by C.J. Spiller and the intimidating crowd in Death Valley.

This was one of the first big-time wins for Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney and one that, to this day, Tiger fans remember when they talk about the electricity of Death Valley.
