Clemson Tigers Defeat Pittsburgh Panthers 24-20

In a closely contested game, the Clemson Tigers secured a 24-20 victory over the Pittsburgh Panthers, thanks in large part to standout performances from quarterback Cade Klubnik and defensive end T.J. Parker. Klubnik made a game-winning 50-yard run late, while Parker recorded a school-record-tying four sacks, showcasing a formidable defensive effort despite missing key players like linebacker Wade Woodaz. The Tigers had to adapt with a significantly injured offensive line, allowing five sacks and nine quarterback hurries against them. Meanwhile, Pittsburgh's Nate Yarnell had a strong outing with 350 passing yards, highlighting the challenges Clemson faced defensively. Despite the injuries, the Tigers' defense forced two turnovers and made critical stops, including an interception by Khalil Barnes on the final play. This victory keeps Clemson's hopes alive as they navigate a tough season with ongoing injury challenges.
