Clemson Tigers quarterback Cade Klubnik took a big step forward in 2024.
In his junior season, the Austin, Texas, native threw for 3,639 yards and 36 touchdowns — both career-bests — to six interceptions. Klubnik completed 63.5 percent of his passes. It was his late-game heroics that saved Clemson’s season in critical moments at Pittsburgh, in the second half at Virginia Tech, and in the ACC Championship Game vs. SMU.
Klubnik will return in 2025 for his senior season at Clemson, and expectations have never been higher. On Thursday, 247Sports named Klubnik the top quarterback in the nation heading into 2025. He edged out LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier for the top spot.
247Sports’ Brad Crawford said of Klubnik:
“2025 projection: 325-of-511, 4,004 yards, 40 TDs, 5 INTs; 365 yards rushing, 5 TDs
Give Dabo Swinney and Garrett Riley credit for sticking with their quarterback. Cade Klubnik was superb during his second go-around with Riley calling the plays in 2024, throwing 17 more touchdown passes than he did the previous campaign thanks to improvements made as a passer. With Bryant Wesco and T.J. Moore back to headline a talented group of receivers for the Tigers, Klubnik could have his best season yet as a senior for the defending ACC champions. His performance through the air at Texas in the playoff really showed how far he’s come from the pocket. Klubnik threw three or more touchdown passes in nine different starts last season, which tied for most in college football with Cam Ward.”
Klubnik and the Tigers open the 2025 season against LSU and Nussmeier on Aug. 30 at Clemson Memorial Stadium.
