COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Cade Klubnik threw for 268 yards and ran for a touchdown, cornerback Ricardo Jones had two interceptions including one for a score, and Clemson closed a disappointing season with its fourth straight win, 28-14 over rival South Carolina on Saturday.

The Tigers (7-5) also got a touchdown run from Adam Randall, two field goals from Nolan Hauser and their defense held strong as the Gamecocks (4-8) tried to rally.

Jones led the way for a defense that had come under fire during Clemson’s 3-5 start. He ended one drive with a pick in the end zone after South Carolina drove to the Tigers 23.
