CLEMSON, S.C. -- Dabo Swinney said preparing for a Week 1 matchup against an LSU team that features more than 40 transfers and a new offensive coaching staff has been a challenge that has required him to watch tape from a dozen schools.

One thing he isn't watching, however, is NFL preseason games.

Instead, Swinney said -- "no pun intended," he insisted -- he and his Tigers are "staying in our lane" when it comes to LSU coach Lane Kiffin's decision to push for two players who were in NFL minicamps to play for his team, perhaps against Clemson, should a judge allow it.

Tight end Dae'Quan Wright and defensive end Junior Tuihalamaka have been practicing with LSU in the run-up to the opener, despite both having spent time in NFL camps. Wright actually played in preseason games with the Cleveland Browns, which Swinney noted with a joke Tuesday.

"I got to watch Browns practice in early June," Swinney said. "I'm probably going to get turned in for tampering."

Swinney has long been critical of the professionalization of college football, eschewing the transfer portal for several years and continuing to put a focus on retaining his own players and developing high school recruits.

The latest drama around the potential return of players from the 2022 recruiting class who left for the NFL before the NCAA adjusted eligibility rules to allow five full years of on-field action is something Swinney said he had never dreamed would happen.

"It's kind of embarrassing," Swinney said. "Honestly, it's embarrassing that's where we are. I don't blame the kids, but people trying to take advantage of the system. It's embarrassing, but we've been there for a while."

Swinney's Tigers open the season at LSU on Saturday in a rematch of last year's opener, which LSU won 17-10.

LSU and Clemson will play each other for the second time ever in the regular season on Sept. 5. It is a rematch from last season’s week one showdown where No. 9 LSU beat No. 4 Clemson in South Carolina 17-10.

LSU and Clemson are two of the most notable programs in college football, and despite facing off infrequently due to being in different conferences they have faced off in some memorable games.

LSU currently holds a 4-1 record all-time against Clemson, with two of these contests securing LSU the national championship. Other notable games from this series include a series split at the Peach Bowl, with LSU besting Clemson in 1996 and the favor being returned in 2012.

As a sixth battle between these two storied Tiger teams looms, here’s a look back at the five previous matchups.

LSU closed out their first-ever recognized national championship season at the 1959 Sugar Bowl, beating Clemson 7-0.

The season-ending win in its home state capped off a perfect 11-0 season for LSU. Clemson went into this game 8-2, with hopes of an upset win in front of a majority LSU crowd of 80,000 people in New Orleans, but couldn’t get anything past LSU’s historic defense.

Despite being the better team on paper, LSU faced challenges in this contest. Most notably, it lost its starting quarterback, Warren Rabb, when he broke his hand in the second quarter. The injury forced Heisman-winning running back Billy Cannon to step in under center.

After several drives where LSU came up scoreless near the goal line, Cannon threw a nine-yard touchdown to Mickey Mangham for the only score of the contest. LSU head coach Paul Dietzel later relied on his legendary defense, known as the “Chinese Bandits,” to get the win.

This unit, led by Mel Branch, was first thought of as a group of less experienced backups but became fan favorites for their grittiness. They were known for not giving up any easy yards, a trait that was on full display against Clemson. The LSU defense let up only 191 total yards and pitched a shutout.

The unit left a legacy that continues to this day. The LSU band plays an arrangement known as “Bandits” after third-down stops to commemorate the defensive unit that was the backbone of the historic 1958 season.

It would be nearly forty years until these two met again, this time in Atlanta, Ga., to decide a Peach Bowl champion.

LSU went into this bowl game ranked No. 17 after going 10-2, opposed to Clemson’s weaker 7-5 year. LSU was built off a strong run game and defense, with running back Kevin Faulk leading the SEC in rushing yards and touchdowns that season.

Clemson’s offense was also driven by a strong run game, led by Raymond Preister, who broke Clemson’s career rushing record after racking up over 1,300 scrimmage yards that season.

Clemson got off to a quick start in this contest, scoring a rushing touchdown in the first quarter, before LSU equalized only a few minutes later off a three-yard Faulk rushing touchdown. LSU then took the lead later in the quarter with a field goal.

Both defenses followed with a complete shutdown of the second half, where the two only managed to combine for five first-down conversions and no points.

LSU secured the 10-7 win, with its quarterback, Herb Tyler, taking home the MVP award.

Clemson snapped the two-game losing streak in 2012. Ranked No. 14, it beat No. 8 LSU in that year’s Peach Bowl after a 25-24 shootout win in Atlanta, Ga.

This contest marked the first time these two teams faced off against each other in what could be described as an offensive duel; both offenses combined for 664 yards.

LSU struck first on a rushing touchdown, but Clemson matched that score later in the opening quarter with a rushing touchdown of its own.

In the second quarter, LSU and Clemson matched scores with both scoring passing touchdowns, but a Clemson missed extra point gave LSU a one-point advantage going into halftime.

LSU managed to extend its lead to 11 in the third quarter after a 57-yard rushing touchdown on the first play of the half by Jeremy Hill was followed up with a field goal.

With all the pressure on his team in the fourth quarter, Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd started connecting on his passes. He set up drives that led to a field goal and touchdown with only three minutes left in the contest.

After a disastrous three-and-out from LSU’s offense, Boyd connected with star receiver DeAndre Hopkins three times in the ensuing drive, capping off a 191-yard game and setting up a game-winning field goal as time expired. Clemson became Peach Bowl Champions, winning 25-24.

2020 National Championship

2020 marked the second time these two teams faced off in a championship-deciding game.

LSU were looked at as favorites in this contest after coming off what most fans say is the program’s greatest season in history. Heading into the game, LSU’s record was 14-0 and it was coming off of a 35-point blowout win against Oklahoma in the College Football Playoff semifinals at the Peach Bowl.

Despite being the underdogs, Clemson also were tearing up college football that season. The defending national champions finished the regular season 12-0 and defeated a stellar Ohio State team 29-23 in their semifinal at the Fiesta Bowl.

The contest was also billed as a historic quarterback duel between that year’s Heisman winner Joe Burrow and reigning national champion Trevor Lawrence.

The first half wouldn’t start as expected for these two top offenses, as the first four drives ended in punts. Clemson struck first, with Lawrence scoring a rushing touchdown at the goal line, but that lead only lasted a few minutes as Burrow found wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase for a 52-yard touchdown.

Clemson reignited the offense in the second quarter as it scored a field goal. That score was followed by a 36-yard Tee Higgins rushing touchdown to give Clemson a ten-point lead.

LSU answered with more chunk plays leading to scores, after another 50-plus-yard reception by Chase set up an easy touchdown run to cut the deficit to three.

The LSU defense then took control, holding the opposing Tigers scoreless for the rest of the half. On the other side of the ball, the offense raised LSU’s lead to 11 off two Burrow touchdown passes.

Clemson managed to cut the difference to three at the start of the third quarter after a Travis Etienne touchdown run, but the LSU offense stayed too powerful to stop. Burrow connected with Thaddeus Moss on a four-yard touchdown pass to bring the lead back to double digits.

Clemson then failed to score throughout the rest of the third, and after one more Burrow touchdown pass, the contest was all but over.

LSU secured the National Championship 42-25, off the back of a historic six-touchdown, 512-yard game by Burrow.

2025 marked the first regular season contest between the two programs.

Both teams went into the year ranked highly. LSU was ranked No. 9, while Clemson sat No. 4 in the rankings. Both teams had similar situations going into week one, both relying on veteran, gunslinging quarterbacks — Garrett Nussmeier and Cade Klubnik — and experienced head coaches — Brian Kelly and Dabo Swinney.

Despite the high rankings, both teams had major question marks. No one had truly seen how these teams’ success the year before would translate to the 2025-26 season.

From this first game, it was clear that both these offenses weren’t clicking the way many expected them to. A Clemson field goal was all that was scored in the first quarter. LSU equalized with a field goal of their own early in the second.

The defensive battle continued into the final minutes of the second quarter before Clemson took a touchdown lead off a one-yard touchdown run.

Nussmeier started to get hot in the third as he connected on a few big passes to set up a game-tying rushing touchdown for Caden Durham. The contest wouldn’t intensify from this touchdown, though, as both offenses struggled to score after a LSU missed field goal and a Clemson interception.

The deadlock was eventually broken early in the fourth quarter. Treydez Green made a spectacular catch over a defender for an eight yard touchdown pass to get LSU up 17-10. LSU’s defense then shut down the game for the rest of the fourth, leading to five straight scoreless drives and a 17-10 win on the road to break LSU’s week one losing streak.

Despite the major ranked win for LSU early in the season, this game proved to be the peak of that squad’s season.

The Brian Kelly experiment came to an end in his fourth year at LSU, as he was unable to win another ranked game that season before being fired in week nine. Nussmeier battled an abdominal injury all year, which significantly hurt his production. He never managed to live up to the top quarterback prospect people projected him to be at the start of the season.

Clemson went on to have an even worse year, as they failed to beat many unranked underdogs and finished with a poor 7-6 record.

Now this year’s rematch will take place in Baton Rouge, as fans hope this year’s rematch doesn’t lead these teams down the same disappointing path it did last season.

CLEMSON, S.C. -- Fourth-year junior quarterback Christopher Vizzina will be behind center for Clemson when the Tigers begin their season Saturday with a highly anticipated game at No. 13 LSU.

Vizzina has just one career start under his belt, but he entered the offseason as the odds-on favorite to land the job after the departure of Cade Klubnik.

While naming Vizzina the starter Tuesday, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney also said true freshman Tait Reynolds "likely" will see playing time against coach Lane Kiffin's LSU team.

"CV didn't have a lot of competition in the spring because he was here and then you had four quarterbacks," Swinney said. "Tait by the end of spring had really separated from that group. I thought Tait made a big jump at the end of spring and it just carried on.

"It's been a lot of fun. CV is just a little ahead. He's not a mile ahead, but he's ahead."

Swinney said there is no plan for Reynolds to get a specific series in the game or be limited to a single package of plays.

"Both are ready to play," he said. "There's no package. Both guys can run the Clemson offense and both will be ready to play."

Reynolds spent the final week of spring ball working with the No. 2 offense, and afterward, Swinney announced a depth chart that featured Vizzina as the starter and Reynolds as the top backup.

"There was a time where I really thought Tait had a chance to take the job," Swinney said Tuesday, "and then he had a couple disastrous days when he just looked like a freshman. CV has just been incredibly steady. He came out ahead to this point."

Vizzina appeared in parts of six games last season. He passed for 404 yards and four touchdowns.

Clemson is coming off a disappointing 7-6 season -- Swinney's worst since 2010 -- and saw a host of departures to the NFL, including Klubnik -- who this week won the role as the New York Jets' backup to starter Geno Smith.
