Tough day in win
Klubnik completed 13 of 26 passes for 109 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 31-23 victory against Notre Dame.

Season-low yardage vs. Notre Dame
Klubnik (lower body) was 13-for-26 passing for 109 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 31-23 win over Notre Dame.
ANALYSIS
Klubnik warming up Saturday was indicative of his availability then. However, the Notre Dame game is his first this year in which he logged less than 100 all-purpose yards. Combine that with another interception, his fourth across Clemson's last three games, Klubnik has been far from great since the Tigers underwent their bye week. He will look to redeem himself in mid-November, beginning with a game against Georgia Tech next Saturday.

Warming up Saturday
Klubnik (lower body) is warming up with his right leg wrapped and his right foot heavily taped ahead of Saturday's game versus Notre Dame, Will Vandervort of The Clemson Insider reports.
ANALYSIS
Klubnik is going through warmups ahead of Saturday's game but with protection on his right leg and foot. He appears to be moving well, so it would be surprising if he was unable to go. Still, he may be slightly limited, especially on the ground, versus a tough Notre Dame defense.

Tough day in loss
Klubnik was 33-for-50 passing for 263 yards and two interceptions during Saturday's 24-17 loss against North Carolina State. He also had eight rushes for negative four yards.
ANALYSIS
Klubnik struggled against a tough NC State defense on Saturday. After several promising games in the middle of the season Clemson seemingly went back to the short pass, ball control style play that had them struggling to move the ball consistently at the beginning of the season. Klubnik and the Tigers will face another tough defense next week in a matchup with Notre Dame.

Good play continues in loss
Klubnik completed 25-of-38 passes for 283 yards with a touchdown and 13 carries for 10 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 31-24 overtime loss to Florida State.

Klubnik didn't make any crucial mistakes and did a very good job through the air but it wasn't enough to get it done for the Tigers. Klubnik will look to continue this play next week against a very solid Syracuse team.

Bounce back day in big win
Klubnik completed 28-of-37 passes for 315 yards with four touchdowns and one interception in Saturday's 66-17 win over Charleston Southern.

Shaky start to the season
Klubnik completed 27-of-43 passes for 209 yards with one touchdown and one interception. Klubnik also added 12 carries for 34 yards in Monday's 28-7 loss to Duke.
ANALYSIS
The Tigers offense didn't show much confidence in the passing abilities of Klubnik as many of his passes were quick throws around or behind the line of scrimmage. The low production shines through in his 27.9 Quarterback Rating on the day. Klubnik's development as a passer will be imperative for the Tigers as they managed to run for over 200 yards but couldn't manage to cash in on several sustained drives.

Gets start for bowl game
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said Klubnik will start Friday's Orange Bowl matchup with Tennessee, ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
With incumbent starter DJ Uiagalelei entering the transfer portal earlier this month and ultimately landing at Oregon State, Klubnik will enter the bowl game atop the depth chart and is likely to head into 2023 as the Tigers' unquestioned starting quarterback. After Uiagalelei was benched early in the Tigers' Dec. 3 ACC Championship Game matchup with North Carolina, Klubnik took over and proceeded to complete 20 of 24 pass attempts for 279 yards and a touchdown while adding 30 yards and another score on the ground in Clemson's 39-10 win.
Oct 23, 2022
Took over at QB in win

ANALYSIS
Klubnik came in late in the third quarter for DJ Uiagalelei who struggled, turning the ball over three times. Klubnik wasn't asked to do much but held things down for the Tigers and led two fourth quarter touchdown drives.
