What time does LSU vs Clemson start? Slight change made to official start time

The highly anticipated LSU vs Clemson game on Saturday will now begin a little later than expected. Kick-off between No. 9 LSU and No. 4 Clemson was originally slated to be at 7:30 p.m. ET. However, fans will have to wait a little longer to see the action begin. The new official kick-off time is 7:52 p.m. ET.

As Dabo Swinney's radio show opens, radio man Don Muson lets everyone know that Clemson's 7:30 p.m. game with LSU will actually kick at 7:52.

The move isn't an unusual one, as college football fans are used to games getting started later than the originally scheduled kick-off time.
