Clemson-South Carolina rivalry will be played in primetime

CLEMSON — Kickoff time for Clemson’s rivalry game with South Carolina has been set.

The Tigers and Gamecocks will meet at 7:30 p.m. at Williams-Brice Stadium, it was announced Monday morning. The game will be shown on the SEC Network.

The two in-state rivals did not meet last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic as SEC schools only played other SEC schools during the regular season. This will be the second straight game between the two teams played at Williams-Brice Stadium.

Up first, the Tigers (7-3, 5-2) host Wake Forest this weekend. The Demon Deacons (9-1, 6-0) can clinch the ACC Atlantic with a win, while Clemson can keep its division title hopes alive with a victory.

South Carolina (5-5, 2-5) hosts Auburn (6-4, 3-3) this weekend.
