In terms of strictly recruiting ramifications, by scratching the Wyoming game from the schedule, Clemson sacrifices a home game for which it can attract prospects to campus. But that figures to be a small sacrifice; the desired names would come to more of a marquee match-up anyway, and there’s much more to be gained by potentially beating UGA on the big stage.

For neutral site games, schools are not allowed to have face-to-face contact with recruits.

But there are varying rules for who can invite recruits.

Under one scenario, if the game is organized or administered by Clemson or UGA, then only the school designated as the home team can provide complimentary tickets to prospects.
