Even with a loss and some first-half struggles, Clemson backup quarterback Christopher Vizzina was a bright spot on Saturday.

CLEMSON, S.C. — SMU kicker Sam Keltner didn’t attempt a field goal in the second half of Saturday’s 35-24 win over Clemson, but his name was the one chanted in the locker room as the team celebrated. “Shoutout Sam Keltner. Shoutout Sam,” SMU linebacker Brandon Miyazono said multiple times during his postgame press conference.

After cruising past Boston College for a 41-10 win last week, the Clemson Tigers tallied back-to-back wins for the first time of the season.  As the Tigers hope to continue their hot streak during an ACC matchup against SMU,

CLEMSON, S.C. — Clemson quarterback Christopher Vizzina found Tristan Smith on 4th-and-21 with 6:44 to play to cut a 12-point SMU lead to five, but the Mustangs (5-2, 3-0 ACC) drove 13 plays and 75 yards in 5:41 to hold off the Tigers (3-4, 2-3 ACC) for a 35-24 win in Memorial Stadium on Saturday.

Kevin Jennings threw for 290 yards and two touchdowns, Chris Johnson Jr. scored on a game-clinching 6-yard touchdown run and SMU defeated Clemson 35-24 on Saturday to avenge last year's heartbreaking loss in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game.

Clemson's 35-24 home loss to SMU on Saturday will only make the voices calling for head coach Dabo Swinney's job grow louder, but he's unlikely to be going anywhere anytime soon.
