CLEMSON – Clemson’s defense received an infusion of youth with the 2023 recruiting class, but the freshmen are not just young but also talented.

Football season is just around the corner with Clemson’s opener on Monday, September 4 against ACC-rival Duke (8 p.m./ESPN), followed by the home opener against Charleston Southern on Saturday, September 9 (2:15 p.m./ACC Network).

While the offense will undoubtedly look different than last season, the defense will also have some new faces. But, according to sophomore Wade Woodaz, the young players have improved and are creating depth on the defensive front.
