Following Clemson’s bye week, Cade Klubnik met with the media on Monday ahead of this week’s matchup at Miami.

Of course, during the bye week, the Tigers’ starting quarterback had plenty of time to look back at his performance in his team’s previous game against Wake Forest on Oct. 7. On Monday, Klubnik gave his takeaways from that game and called it “my second worst game that I’ve played.”

“But you flush it and you get back to work, and we did that last week,” Klubnik added.

Against the Demon Deacons, Klubnik went 18-of-28 passing (64.3 percent) and threw for a season-low 131 yards with no touchdown passes and no interceptions. He also ran for 48 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries.

It was Klubnik’s first game this season without a touchdown pass, while his passer rating (103.6) in that contest was his lowest mark of the season.

Klubnik explained why he feels it was his second worst game.

“I wasn’t really just letting it rip,” he said. “I guess I wasn’t seeing a few things… I don’t think that it was anything that anybody else did or anything like that. You play a lot of football games, you’re going to happen like that. So, just kind of get ready for this next week. It was great timing for a bye week, and just kind of ready to go after it, go play another game.”

So, if the Wake game was Klubnik’s second worst, what does he see as his worst game?

“Probably the Duke game to start the year,” Klubnik said.

Klubnik and the Tigers (4-2, 2-2 ACC) will look for their third straight conference win when they take on Miami (4-2, 0-2) on Saturday at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla.

Klubnik believes his team took advantage of the bye week, and it gave Clemson a chance to reset for the second half of the season.

“We got after it. We didn’t let a day get wasted. We had a great week, and excited to just continue that,” Klubnik said. “Last week was almost our halftime in a way, so just kind of reset and rethinking, alright, what do I want these next six weeks to really look like? My hope is we get to play these next six games with no regrets and just go play, and give everything I possibly can and look up at the end of it and be happy with what we did.”
