The Clemson–Syracuse showdown has been officially delayed due to lightning in the area. Strikes were detected within the eight-mile safety radius of Memorial Stadium, forcing officials to halt play.
Fans were instructed to seek shelter as safety protocols took effect, bringing the game to an abrupt stop with Clemson trailing 24–7.
The pause comes at a critical moment, as the Orange have controlled the first half and the Tigers search for answers. Depending on the storm’s movement, the stoppage could last at least 30 minutes before play resumes.
