Will Clemson fend off LSU at home, or can the Tigers of Baton Rouge steal the opener?
Clemson and LSU Kick Off Season with Blue-Blood Showdown in Death Valley
The 2025 college football season launches with a heavyweight non-conference clash: No. 4 Clemson hosts No. 9 LSU in a high-stakes opener at Memorial Stadium on August 30.
