What channel is Clemson football spring game on today? Time, TV, where to watch

CLEMSON — Clemson football’s annual spring showcase returns to Memorial Stadium on Saturday, March 28, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET, and once again fans hoping to watch from home will need to make alternate plans. The Tigers’ spring game will not be televised, repeating last year’s arrangement, and live viewing is limited to in-person attendance inside the stadium—admission is free.

Coach Dabo Swinney has remained committed to staging a traditional spring game, eschewing the scaled-back or canceled formats adopted by several programs across the country. Swinney emphasizes that the full-speed scrimmage gives newcomers their first taste of a Clemson game-day atmosphere, an experience he believes pays dividends well before the regular season kicks off. The event also doubles as a recruiting platform, allowing prospects on unofficial visits to witness the program’s operation up close.

Although no television coverage is planned, Clemson will produce an hour-long spring-football special that will air on ACC Network and the school’s Clemson+ platform later this spring. For those unable to attend, live audio of the scrimmage will be available via the Clemson Athletic Network and streamed on ClemsonTigers.com.

Saturday’s format will feature a split-squad setup, with players and coaches divided between two rosters and standard scoring in place. Clock management will mirror a regulation contest for the opening quarter and the final two minutes of each half; a running clock will be used at all other times, and there will be no extended halftime intermission.

The spring game caps a busy stretch for the program, though one additional practice remains on the calendar, scheduled for March 30.
