Quarterback Garrett Nussmeier threw for 230 yards and a touchdown on 28-for-38 passing. Aaron Anderson led all receivers with six catches for 99 yards. Running back Caden Durham posted 74 yards and a score on 17 carries, averaging 4.4 yards per touch. Defensively, linebacker Harold Perkins was everywhere, finishing with five tackles, two QB hurries and a sack. Cornerback Mansoor Delane flashed in his debut with an interception and two pass breakups.

LSU and Clemson were tied at 10 with 8:59 to play in the third quarter.

Clemson returned it back to LSU as Delane intercepted Klubnick’s pass on 2nd-and-10.

LSU drove down to the Clemson 1-yard line thanks to a 28-yard completion to Barion Brown, but the catch was later called incomplete. Nussmeier’s pass to Thomas on 3rd-and-11 fell incomplete, forcing another field goal attempt from Ramos from 46 yards out. The field goal was no good.

The Fighting Tigers would respond with an 11-play, 73-yard drive to pull ahead when Nussmeier found Trey’Dez Green on a fade route for an 8-yard touchdown score, giving LSU the 17-10 advantage with 12:18 to play. With 13 seconds to play – and the game at stake – Klubnick’s pass to Moore fell incomplete, giving LSU’s defense a turnover on downs to clinch a massive victory.

With the win, LSU improves to 1-0 overall. The Tigers will return to Death Valley on Saturday to face Louisiana Tech at 6:30 p.m. CT on SEC Network+.
