Former Westlake star Cade Klunbik came in during the second half with Clemson trailing Syracuse 21-10 but brought the Tigers back to life. Klubnik led the Tigers to two touchdowns in the fourth quarter to cap a 27-21 comeback victory. Syracuse, one of the surprise teams in college football this season, dropped two spots to No. 16 after the loss.
Kansas State is the only other Big 12 Conference in either poll at No. 22 in both.
Texas (5-3, 3-2 Big 12 Conference) has a bye week before it resumes conference play Nov. 5 at Kansas State. The Longhorns have already matched last year’s win total and need one more win to become bowl-eligible
