CLEMSON — Clemson football will reunite with familiar faces when the Tigers begin ACC play.
No. 11 Clemson (1-1) faces Georgia Tech (2-0) on Sept. 13 (noon ET, ESPN) at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta. The Yellow Jackets are in their third season under coach Brent Key, who has led Georgia Tech to a 2-0 start for the second straight season for the first time since 2015 and 2016.
