Just a thought on Elevation

Clemson is almost 600ft higher in elevation than Chestnut hill, MA. Pretty sure higher elevation is cold also, just a thought.

600 feet is nothing. It’s going to be cold and windy there

Every 1000 feet in elevation averages about 5 degrees in temperature decline. Therefore, Clemson is usually about 3 degrees cooler than Charleston and 10 degrees warmer than Caesars Head.....

Winter is much colder in Clemson than Charleston than 3 degrees.

Yep, Charleston is kept a bit warmer in winter due to proximity to the ocean. I should have used an inland town of slight elevation like Lake City at 60 feet elevation instead of Chucktown....

After practicing in thin air at an elevation of 700 feet, we should play like superhero Power Rangers with all tha extra oxygen in Boston at an elevation of 100 feet.

Hot, thin, humid air vs cool, dense air. This better "density altitude" is going to give us much better performance.

Don’t try to dispel the myth that weather in the south is always hot and humid.

It helps further the storyline that our team won’t know what to do tonight in such cold weather.
Nevermind the fact that it is actually colder in Clemson today than in Boston, and the temps today are in line with the average temps for the entire month of January in Clemson.
Nope, those southern boys just won’t know what to do in this cold...

I was in the Valley for the 2013 game against GT. I can honestly say that I've never been as cold in my life as I was that night. I'm no stranger to cold weather, as it gets plenty cold with frigid wind chills here in northern VA, and I've also lived in Philly. By the way, Clemson scored 55 points that night. Boyd had 4 TD passes.
