Clemson set to play in Cheez-It Bowl versus Iowa State |
Clemson will take on a Big 12 foe for the first time since 2016 in postseason action.
The Tigers were officially announced Sunday as headed for the Dec. 29 Cheez-It Bowl at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida versus Iowa State (7-5). The game is set for a 5:45 p.m. ET ESPN broadcast start. The Tigers and Cyclones will be meeting for the first time. The last Clemson game versus a Big 12 opponent was the Tigers’ Jan. 1, 2016, Orange Bowl Playoff semifinal against Oklahoma, a 37-17 win. After a five-game winning streak and tying for second in the Atlantic Division, Clemson (9-3) is appearing in a non-New Year’s Six Bowl for the first time since 2014, That was also versus Oklahoma, in the predecessor to the Cheez-It Bowl in Orlando, a 40-6 Russell Athletic Bowl win. In the bowl portion of the schedule (excluding national championship), Clemson is 3-2 over the last five seasons. I woke up feeling the cheesiest coach. Let’s gooooo! https://t.co/xVlXmYO9jM OFFICIAL: No. 19 @ClemsonFB will play @CycloneFB in the 2021 @cheezit Bowl! #CheezItBowl
