After three weeks of frustration, Clemson quarterback Cade Klubnik looked every bit the leader this team has been searching for. Efficient, poised, and in total control, Klubnik completed 22 of 24 passes for 254 yards and four touchdowns in the Tigers’ 38–10 domination of North Carolina — a performance that reset the tone for a program desperate to find its rhythm.
From the very first play — a 75-yard touchdown strike on a trick pass from Antonio Williams to T.J. Moore — Clemson’s offense had swagger. But it was Klubnik’s consistency that defined the afternoon.
“It was awesome,” Klubnik said.
