Veteran Clemson QB Klubnik Tipped as 2025 Breakout Star
15 Aug
Summary
- Klubnik, 21, entering final year of NCAA eligibility
- Analyst Phil Steele predicts Klubnik will lead Clemson to 12-0 season
- Klubnik had 36 TDs and 6 INTs last year with top receivers back
As the 2025 college football season approaches, all eyes are on Clemson Tigers' veteran quarterback Cade Klubnik. The 21-year-old is entering his final year of NCAA eligibility and is already generating Heisman Trophy buzz.
According to respected analyst Phil Steele, who recently appeared on Colin Cowherd's show, Klubnik is poised to have a breakout year. Steele believes Klubnik's ability to utilize his resources and run the ball effectively sets him apart. Last season, Klubnik threw for 36 touchdowns and just 6 interceptions, and now with his top receivers back from injury, Steele expects him to lead Clemson to a perfect 12-0 record.
The Tigers' path to an undefeated season won't be easy, as they face a challenging schedule that includes matchups against LSU, Syracuse, and North Carolina. However, with Klubnik operating behind Clemson's number two-rated offensive line and throwing to their number two receiving corps, Steele is confident the veteran quarterback can guide the team to success.
