Clemson Announces Exciting Home Gameday Events for 2025 Football Season

CLEMSON, S.C. – The Clemson Athletic Department, in collaboration with IPTAY, the Alumni Association, and other groups, revealed key details about the 2025 football season today. The announcement included home gameday designations for Memorial Stadium and the timeline for season ticket sales.

The Tigers’ home opener will showcase a highly anticipated matchup against LSU on August 30, 2025. Clemson will also host notable teams including 2024 College Football Playoff participant SMU, Syracuse, Duke, Florida State, and Furman. ‘We’re excited about the level of competition and the fan experiences planned for our home games,’ said Clemson Athletic Director Dan Radakovich.

This season is significant as Clemson is among only two programs scheduled to compete in four or more home games against Power Five opponents with nine or more wins in the previous season. The school’s commitment to providing an impressive home slate could enhance its status in the national rankings.
