Kickoff time, TV info announced for Clemson football’s matchup with Stanford

Kickoff time for Clemson vs. Stanford on Sept. 28 was announced Monday.

The ACC on Monday announced kickoff times for Week 5 games, including the 19th-ranked Clemson Tigers‘ showdown against the Stanford Cardinal in Death Valley on Sept. 28.

The Tigers (2-1) and Cardinal (1-1) will play in prime time at 7 p.m. ET. The game will be televised on ESPN. It will mark the first meeting between the schools as conference opponents since Stanford joined the ACC along with California after the collapse of the Pac-12 in 2023.

Clemson and Stanford have met once before — in the 1986 Gator Bowl in Jacksonville, a 27-21 win for coach Danny Ford’s team.

The Tigers are coming off a bye after defeating Appalachian State, 66-20, and will host NC State this Saturday in Death Valley at noon ET in a game that will be nationally televised on ABC. The Wolfpack (2-1) defeated Louisiana Tech, 30-20, over the weekend in Raleigh.
