Clemson QB Trusted God’s ‘Control’ Ahead of Saturday Win
By Movieguide® Contributor
Clemson, SMU and Miami are all contending for the two spots in the ACC Conference Championship Game.
Per Sports Spectrum, “No. 17 Clemson is no stranger to ACC Championship Games, having won the league seven of the past nine seasons, yet the Tigers posted a 9-4 record a season ago and missed out on the 2023 ACC title game. Leading the charge and out to prove that 2023 was an anomaly is junior quarterback Cade Klubnik, whose improvement has helped lead to Clemson’s resurgence.”
Klubnik came up big for the Tigers as he single-handedly retook the lead over Pitt last Saturday with a 50-yard run, securing his team’s 24-20 win.
After the game, the quarterback gave glory to God.

“(Reserve QB and student coach) Paul Tyson comes up to me and he goes, ‘Man, God’s in your corner.’ And at that time I just felt peace,” he told ESPN. “I’m just sitting on the sideline praying that God would be in control, and He was.”
Klubnik boldly uses his platform to proclaim the Good News.
After the win against Pittsburgh, he posted several photos from the game. “Unwavering Belief,” the quarterback wrote, followed by Psalm 133:1, which reads, “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!”
In another post, Klubnik quoted 2 Corinthians 12:10, which says, “For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
He also included the hashtag, AO1 which means “Audience of One.
In July, Klubnik discussed why he uses his platform to share his love for Christ.
“I’ve been given this platform and I don’t want to put it to waste,” he told Sports Spectrum. “I haven’t really done much to get to where I am now. It’s all just because of the Lord. So because of where I am, no matter what platform I’m using, I want to be able to use it to speak about God.”
