Clemson is deep into spring football as it gears up for the 2025 season, with several key storylines emerging.
One of the biggest focuses has been the return of wide receiver Tyler Brown, who has impressed after recovering from an ankle injury that limited him last season. Meanwhile, true freshman defensive tackle Amare Adams has taken advantage of extra reps with several veterans sidelined, showing he can contribute early. Another freshman, Gideon Davidson, looks to be the difference maker at running back.
Head coach Dabo Swinney has also opted for a more controlled approach to the annual Orange & White Game, turning it into a scrimmage rather than a full game due to roster availability. While Clemson isn’t showcasing its spring game on TV, the Tigers are fully locked in on preparing for the challenges ahead.
As Clemson and other programs prepare for the season, College Football News ranked each ACC team’s strength of schedule, with the lower the ‘spring strength of schedule score,’ the more difficult the schedule. Clemson ended up with a score of 507.5, leaving them with the No. 6 most difficult schedule in the conference.
The season opens with a bang against Garrett Nussmeier and the LSU Tigers, who travel to Death Valley for a battle of what could be top-10 teams. Clemson starting quarterback Cade Klubnik and Nussmeier are two of the top Heisman favorites for the upcoming season.
CFN ranked the Tigers’ road matchup against South Carolina as their second most difficult game, with Clemson looking for revenge. This matchup is followed by a road game against Georgia Tech, the Tigers’ home matchup against Florida State, and another revenge opportunity against Louisville on the road.
