The 2021 Clemson football season did not get started as many Tiger fans would have hoped.
Clemson dropped its season-opener to the Georgia Bulldogs 10-3 in a game where two defenses dominated and offense was hard to come by. The lone touchdown of the game came when D.J. Uiagalelei was picked off in Georgia territory and Christopher Smith returned it 74 yards for a touchdown.
