CLEMSON, S.C. — Garrett Nussmeier could only watch but with how the game had unfolded to that point, he wouldn't have it any other way.
LSU football was clinging to a one-score lead as Clemson drove the ball down the 15-yard line with a minute left, looking to try and tie things up. On third-and-4, LSU sophomore corner P.J Woodland broke up Cade Klubnik 's pass to Bryant Wesco to set up fourth down.
On the next play, LSU's Harold Perkins Jr. ran behind the defensive line as Klubnik scampered out of the pocket. The linebacker turned on his closing speed to force a bad throw that fell incomplete and clinched the 17-10 win for LSU on Saturday night inside Memorial Stadium.
