The best entrance in college football just got hotter. Literally.

2001 adding pyro

I watched the clip a couple times, still not sure how I feel about this. Could be the greatest addition ever, or, could be too much wwe. I assume the recruits/players like it.
I don't like it....
The entrance is already amazing. Don't try and fix it if it ain't broken.

Who cares if anyone on here likes it?
This, the DJ and a lot of the other additions/changes are for recruiting purposes so suck it up and deal with it.

I do like the fact that we will be the only college football team using pyro. For this year, at least. I'm sure Clemtech will copy it and call it "years old tradition".
Doesn't look as good in a empty stadium during the day. I think it will look much better Saturday night foe the Kentucky game.

And we don't even have it officially decorated yet!
Also...another angle:

"The University of South Carolina is the only NCAA team currently utilizing these effects for football games on this scale,” said Justin Pruett, Show Producer for Pyrotecnico FX. “Use of this type of equipment is more often seen across the NFL,"
Takes away from the actual team but some people just like seeing things blow up or burn.
Hey, there's a thought. Maybe we can run out to a few cars blowing up on the 50 yard line while the new DJ blasts some wild rap music. Recruits would dig that.

I think I saw this on the wizard of oz. But if the recruits and players like it, let's roll with it. And others use fire for an entrance already. I think we are trying too hard but at least we give a damn now.
I like it. Ever been to a KISS concert? Awesome, as long as the smoke is there I have no problemo with it. Keep it safe, we don't want to be on the news because someone got set on fire.
Look on the bright side, at least we aren't releasing a bunch of baloons while we rub a stone that's broken. Now that would be cheesy.
They already have a DJ so this gives us the look of copying them.
Also, the playoffs and I believe the ACC championship has pyro as well.
Spin it as you may but this is a bad look. Not a very "college campus" feel.

re the DJ...he's already been there at games in the past. Just not utilized as much (mainly during the 3rd quarter "band break").
Regardless of your feelings about the addition, it is still 1,000x better than polluting the environment with hundreds of orange and purple balloons.
Let's see, fire near a jammed entrance of football players what could possibly go wrong? Remember guys stop-drop-and roll.
The balloons are 100% biodegradable. Designed at Clemson so as to not hurt the environment.

It's still disgusting that they do it and needs to be stopped.
There are no strings attached to the balloons that are released and again, they are 100% biodegradable. Literally no harm to the environment.
Unless these shiny purple and orange balloons dissipate into thin air the second they hit any other object, you are wrong. It is disgusting that Clemson releases these balloons every game. Absolutely disgusting.
You are right, they do take around 6 months to biodegrade. I guess I should say minimal damage to the environment.
Exactly, it is absolutely disgusting that Clemson releases these balloons every single home game. It's truly pathetic in 2017 that any institute of higher learning would do it and especially an Ag school. It's so selfish.
Designed at Clemson? So y'all really are a clown college after all, huh?
Good job fellas. Now stop damaging the visual environment of the state with orange and tiger paws and you'll be onto something
