Clemson's starting QB against the SMU Mustangs in Week 15

Cade Klubnik has started every game for the Clemson Tigers, and, barring any midweek injury, should start the ACC Championship Game against the SMU Mustangs. Klubnik was the ACC Championship Game MVP in 2022 and will be aiming for a similar outcome in this year's game.

Klubnik has been in good form this season, amassing a stat line of 3,041 passing yards, 29 touchdowns and five interceptions in 12 games. He led the Tigers to a 9-3 overall record (7-1 in conference play).

Cade Klubnik might declare for the 2024 NFL draft, so this could be his last game for the Tigers. He will be aiming to defeat SMU to give his team a shot at the expanded college football playoffs.

Clemson Tigers QB depth chart

According to College Football Network, the Clemson Tigers have one more player on their quarterback depth chart: Christopher Vizzina, who has played backup for the entirety of the 2024 season behind Klubnik.

Christopher Vizzina joined Clemson as a highly touted four-star recruit. He joined the Clemson Tigers as a solid building block for their illustrious history and to provide competition for the incumbent starter.

However, Vizzina has yet to start a game for the Tigers this season, as the team has been led exclusively by the potentially NFL-bound Klubnik.

It will take an unlikely turn of events for Christopher Vizzina to start against the SMU Mustangs. However, the former high school standout will be ready to step into action at any stage of the ACC Championship Game.
