The Clemson Tigers struggled offensively through three quarters against Duke, and some fans think there might be some trouble in paradise.
On Monday night, 9th-ranked Clemson seemed to be frustrated by not being able to score on Duke.
Fans on social media blasted coach Dabo and starting QB Cade Klubnik.

At one point in the game, Swinney came over to give Klubnik a high-five on the sideline, and his QB just ran past him.

Y’all see Klubnik just leave Dabo hanging coming off the Field and Dabo turning back and looking at him. Weird. pic.twitter.com/R72rxMQMZC

Duke’s 28-7 win over Clemson was the first time the Blue Devils have beaten the Tigers in football since September 30, 1989. That was also the last time Duke Football beat a top-10 opponent.
