USA TODAY Sports' Paul Myerberg and Dan Wolken break down who could be the next Auburn Tigers' head football coach.SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Clemson football's national championship hopes may have blown away on windy night at Notre Dame Stadium.
The fifth-ranked Tigers were dominated Saturday night by Notre Dame, 35-14, as gusts of up to 35 mph swirled in the historic arena. Falling to the unranked Fighting Irish will make Clemson a longshot to get back into position for the College Football Playoff with only three games remaining in the regular season and then the ACC championship game.Notre Dame blocked a punt at the end of Clemson's first possession and returned it 19 yards for a touchdown to set the upset stage.
Late in the second quarter, the Fighting Irish had maybe the most-important drive of the game, marching 78 yards on 11 plays. Notre Dame quarterback Drew Pyne scored on a 5-yard touchdown with just 38 seconds left in the half. The Irish ran it 10 times on the possession and only faced third down once. Instead just a seven-point lead going into the third quarter and not much happening on offense for either team, it was a 14-0 lead that give the Irish momentum going into break.
Clemson's offense sputtered in the third quarter and quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei was taken out for the second time in two games, giving way to freshman Cade Klubnik. Uiagalelei was 13-for-19 passing but for only 78 yards at the time. He couldn't connect with anything even moderately deep. But Klubnik was an immediate disaster, throwing an interception from his own 7-yard line to set up Notre Dame with a touchdown for a 21-0 lead. Uiagalelei went back in on the next series and threw an interception that was returned 96 yards for a touchdown by Benjamin Morrison that ended any chance of an unlikely comeback.
