For a second straight week the Clemson offense came out on fire to start a football game.

This time, the Tigers did it at Boston College, as quarterback Cade Klubnik led an offense that scored on each of its six offensive possessions in the first half. Clemson took a 24-point lead into the locker room, as it rolled to a 41-10 victory at Alumni Stadium in Chestnut Hill, Mass.

The Tigers (3-3, 2-2 ACC) finished the night with 504 total yards, including 333 of those yards in the first half. Klubnik ran six yards a TD in the second quarter and then threw a 38-yard TD pass to Bryant Wesco.

After a 46-yard Nolan Hauser field goal to open the scoring, Clemson got an 8-yard TD run from running back Adam Randall on its second possession.

Following a BC field goal to cut the Clemson lead to seven points, 10-3, the Tigers responded with Peter Woods’ 2-yard TD before Klubnik’s and Wesco’s TD later in the half. Hauser ended the first half by drilling a 50-yard field goal as time expired to give Clemson a 34-10 lead at the break.

Keith Adams scored on a 1-yard run with 24 seconds to play to put the Tigers over 40 points for the first time this season. Adams led the team with 49 yards on seven carries.

Klubnik injured

The Clemson quarterback got hurt late in the third quarter on a second-and-goal play from the Boston College 9-yard line. On the play, Klubnik ran six yards on a designed quarterback run where he took a big hit from a couple of BC defenders with 1:21 to play in the third quarter.

On the replay, it appeared Klubnik’s left knee got stuck on the turf. He got up limping and was taken out of the game. Christopher Vizzina replaced him at quarterback and threw a fourth-down interception in the end zone to end the Clemson scoring drive.

Klubnik did not return. He finished the game 22 of 30 for 280 yards with two total TDs, including 48 rushing yards on nine carries.

Klubnik completed 18 of 23 passes for 244 yards in the first half, including a 38-yard TD pass to wide receiver Bryant Wesco. The Clemson quarterback also

Randall makes history

Though it was quiet night for Clemson running back Adam Randall, he still made history. He became the fourth Clemson player since 1938 to score a TD in each of the first six games of a season.

Randall had an 8-yard TD run with 4:05 to play in the first quarter.

Big Boy TD

Clemson extended its lead to two touchdowns when defensive tackle Peter Woods powered through the right side of the offensive line with 13:05 to play in the second quarter.

Woods’ TD gave the Tigers a 17-3 lead at the time. Woods lined up in Clemson’s power set as the tailback, as he easily scored to cap the 75-yard, 8-play drive. The TD was Woods’ second carry of the game, as he earlier converted on a fourth-and-one play in the first quarter.

Trifecta

Clemson defensive end Jahiem Lawson had himself a night. The junior tallied two sacks and was in on three, including two sacks in which he assisted Woods.
