The2020 Clemson Tigers football team representedClemson University during the2020 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Tigers were led by head coachDabo Swinney, in his 12th full year. The Tigers competed as a member of theAtlantic Coast Conference (ACC) and played their home games atMemorial Stadium inClemson, South Carolina.

The season was played amidst the ongoingCOVID-19 pandemic. The ACC settled on an eleven-game football schedule, with ten conference games with no divisions and one non-conference game. Clemson canceled their previously scheduled non-conference games againstAkron andSouth Carolina, and kept their game againstThe Citadel. Precautions were taken to reduce the spread of the virus, including testing, isolation requirements, and limitations on the number of fans in attendance.

Clemson began the year ranked first in the preseasonAP Poll, and handily won their first seven games of the season, including a 42–17 win over then-No. 9Miami (FL). Starting quarterbackTrevor Lawrence tested positive for COVID-19 on October 29, and was forced to miss the team's next two games againstBoston College and temporary ACC memberNotre Dame. The team escaped with a close win against Boston College, but lost on the road to then-No. 4 Notre Dame in double overtime, 47–40. Clemson won the remainder of their regular season games, and earned a place in theACC Championship Game by finishing second in the division-less format with an 8–1 record, behind Notre Dame. In the rematch against the Fighting Irish, this time with Lawrence at quarterback, the Tigers were victorious by a score of 34–10, to win their sixth consecutive ACC title. In the finalCollege Football Playoff rankings of the season, Clemson was ranked second, earning them a place in the national semifinal to be played at theSugar Bowl against third-seededOhio State, a rematch ofthe previous season's Fiesta Bowl. Clemson lost the rematch, 49–28, to end the season at 10–2 and ranked third in the final polls.

Junior quarterback Trevor Lawrence led the team on offense with 3,153 passing yards and 24 passing touchdowns. He was named ACC Player of the Year and finished second in voting for theHeisman Trophy. The team's leading rusher wasTravis Etienne, who was named aconsensus All-American all-purpose back.Amari Rodgers was the team's leading receiver and was named first-team all-conference.
