Kate Klub Nick is scary, scary, good this season.

And every, everyone wants to talk about Dylan Gabriel at Oregon, Cam Ward at Miami Ohio State and Will Howard.

Well, Kate Klu just sits in the shadows and continues baling out at Clemson II.

I said it after Clemson lost to Georgia just give it until mid October and Clemson will be right back where they should be a solidified top 10 team with a top quarterback in the country.

And Kate Klum Nick now has thrown for 20 touchdowns and just three interceptions this season.

So Georgia exposed what Clemson had to work on in that second half in week one and now Klenk is going to lead them to an AC C title game.

They're going to be 11 and one in that game.

And club Nick will get the door out against Cam Ward with some serious Heisman implications in that game.

It looks like Kate Club is gonna turn up the pace and it's very realistic that Kate Knick will get the 3500 yards and 35 touchdowns this season and Kate Knick could very easily be represented in New York at the Heisman trophy ceremony.

There's a very clear path to that happening.

So scary.

Uh Kay Kubick.

Scary, good.

Right now.

It's like they've decided they're gonna let him use his legs more.

I mean, just realistically he's running the football really well, which is setting up the pass, like all of these things, he's only taken, I think, five sacks all year.

So you just, you think about the efficiency, you know, I take a shot every time I talk about that, but like you think about the efficiency of his throws, but also the fact that it feels like they've sort of opened more of the offense to just let Cade be a playmaker and it's been a beautiful thing to watch.

You're right.

Uh And I'll scream loudly again.

I was wrong.

Uh leaving Clemson out to die early, uh and wrong, leaving out to, I mean, it's just, it feels like this is exactly what Dabo was banking on his team's getting better every single week.

And right now, if I had to pick on a neutral field, as we always say, if I had to pick, I'd take Clemson to win the AC C I had this preconceived notion that Clemson was going to be bad anyway, just because I didn't believe in Dabo's approach to the transfer portal.

The fact that they didn't take a single trade for portal player.

I in today's college football when every other roster is getting better when you are losing talent when you're losing depth into the transfer portal and you're not replenishing it.

You cannot compete until it was like, hold on.

Clemson's not just winning like Miami, they're demolishing teams like they are putting up gaudy numbers.

So II I, Kate Klub Nick is a guy that I don't think is getting enough talk and isn't getting enough love for how good he's been since week one.

Like we can allow teams to get better throughout the season.
