Friday afternoon statement from Clemson

Clemson officials announced this afternoon Saturday’s football game will kick off as scheduled at 8:22 p.m.

“We’ve been in constant communication with state and local law enforcement and have monitored weather throughout the week and today,” director of athletics Dan Radakovich said. “I’ve spoken with campus leaders, State Highway Patrol, and Governor Nikki Haley, and feel confident we can play the game as scheduled. We ask our fans to be conscientious arriving and departing from our campus as we will have some limitations due to this ongoing weather event.”

“Our officers and partners with other agencies will do everything we can to ensure the safety of fans coming to tomorrow’s game, but we urge personal caution and patience from everyone coming to and leaving campus,” Clemson University Chief of Police Eric Hendricks said.
