The 2025 season will be an exciting one for Clemson. Expectations are high and the Tigers have the personnel to meet them. For the first time since 2020 there is a real chance for Dabo Swinney’s team to get back to the national championship. In order to do that though, Clemson must take care of business in the regular season first.
The Tigers have a schedule that looks manageable but will be tough. The opener and closer will both be against ranked SEC opponents. Sandwiched between those games are tough conference matchups. The ACC will be competitive this season and the Tigers will face four of the top six teams with the best odds to win the conference according to FanDuel.
If Clemson is not careful, it can slip up against a few teams on the schedule. Every loss makes it harder to earn a bid to the college football playoffs. If the Tigers can get wins in some of its most important games though, it will give them the best chance to get back to the playoffs.
