Bryant Wesco Jr. broke a tie with a 65-yard punt return touchdown as Clemson’s defense held Cal without another offensive score.

  • On Friday night in Berkeley, Clemson defeated California 24-10 in Atlantic Coast Conference play. Running back Gideon Davidson rushed for a career-high 159 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Tigers to 3-1.
  • Bryant Wesco Jr. broke a 10-10 tie late in the third quarter by returning a punt 65 yards for a touchdown. It marked Clemson's first punt return score since 2018, shifting momentum decisively in the defensive struggle.
  • California's offense struggled, managing just 231 total yards and failing to score an offensive touchdown. Standout running back Adam Mohammed recorded 81 scrimmage yards before a knee injury sidelined him; the Golden Bears' only score came from Kamar Mothudi's fumble return.
