3 Clemson arrived in New Orleans on Friday for the College Football Playoff title game after nearly two weeks of waiting, healing and prepping after their semifinals wins. The team left a few minutes later than its scheduled time, but arrived only about five minutes or so late to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. When the door to the airliner opened two Clemson flags were held at the top of the mobile stairway. “Only in New Orleans," Clemson starting tackle Tremayne Anchrum said with smile. It seems like everyone involved — and maybe some who aren't — are happy the wait is almost over.
