The 2023 college football season has started as Week 0 is behind us with fans looking forward to Week 1 action where their favorite teams could be taking the field for the first time.
For the Tigers, it is a September 4 matchup at Duke that fans are waiting for that will kickoff what could be a special season for the Clemson football program. Will Clemson make their long awaited return to the College Football Playoff in 2023, or will it be a season where the Tigers are once again on the outside looking in?
