Well, that was a close call! In their Week 12 game, the Clemson Tigers played the Pittsburgh Panthers, and it almost became uncomfortable for the away team. While the game only became close in the 4th quarter and needed saving from the offense, the Tigers still won 24-20. On some days, a W in the record is all you need. Tigers’ QB1 Cade Klubnik again impressed throughout the game, and a certain someone (for obvious reasons) took notice of Dabo Swinney’s star player.

After the game, Clemson Tigers star quarterback Cade Klubnik’s girlfriend, Macey Matthews, took to her official Instagram account to share a story hyping her man, saying, “So beyond proud of you.” Well, what’s better than getting praise from your loved ones? And why should she not be proud of Cade Klubnik? His 50-yard touchdown in just 1:16 minutes remaining in the game gave a 20-17 lead to the team. This surely calls for big praise!

Moreover, Cade Klubnik finished his game against the Pittsburgh Panthers by completing 27 out of 41 of his passes for 288 yards with two touchdowns through the air and also added 41 yards on the ground, giving an edge to Clemson’s offense in the game. He surely proved head coach Dabo Swinney’s words right: “His rushing ability has changed everything for us this year.” And this is exactly what happened with the team in today’s showdown. Now let’s see how Cade’ presence is adding value to the team.

Cade Klubnik adding value to the team

This season Cade Klubnik has emerged as a key strength of the team, and with every game he is adding more and more depth in his gameplay. And if you think Cade did something beyond expectation in today’s showdown, then you are wrong. The young quarterback showcased a jaw-dropping performance against the Appalachian State by completing 24 out of 26 passes for 378 yards with 7 remarkable touchdowns. All of this is just playing for the first half of the game. Now you can understand the level of precision Cade Klubnik has in his execution.

Talking about Clemson’s today’s gameplay against Pittsburgh, including Cade Klubnik, every player was in their best form. Apart from Klubnik, wide receiver Antonio Williams was a key contributor to the Tigers’ offense. During the game, Williams completed an impressive 13 rushes for 149 yards with two touchdowns. But it wasn’t an easy win for the Tigers, as even Pittsburgh gave a really tough competition by holding them up till the final moment of the game until Cade Klubnik made a big rush to put Clemson in a better position. With this game, the Tigers are now standing on an 8-2 streak, and moreover, the team is also standing in the 20th position in this week’s playoff projection. Let’s see if they can maintain this performance till the end of the season or not!
