It's the Tigers' first natty since 2015 when they lost to another Pac-12 team, Stanford. They have won their last two games via penalty kicks, and goal keeper George Marks had 3 saves in those PK's. Kickoff is at 2:00 on ESPNU, and I'll have live updates right here!

It's a pro-Clemson crowd in Cary, NC for sure! The Tiger Band is in the stands as well. |

GOOOOOALLLL!!! Isaiah Reid scores in the first minute of the game! The Huskies' keeper whiffed on a routine long ball into the box from Agren, and Reid was there to shoot the ball into the empty net. Tigers get the all-important first goal! That's huge because they are undefeated this season when scoring first, and Noonan is 119-8-8 in such games at Clemson. TIGERS LEAD 1-0 IN 1ST. |

GOOOOOALLLLL!!!! Reid again! This time on a header in the 15th minute! He has both of the Tigers' goals today and now has the team lead with 9 this season. Great ball from Asensio for the assist! TIGERS LEAD 2-0 IN 1ST. |
