Chris Johnson Jr. runs for 2 TDs and Clemson posts 1st shutout in 5 seasons with 37-0 win over Bucs

CLEMSON, S.C. -- , Chris Johnson Jr. ran for two touchdowns and Clemson posted its first shoutout in five seasons by blanking Football Championship Subdivision opponent Charleston Southern 37-0 on Saturday. The Tigers (4-2) scored on their first five possessions including runs of 6 and 2 yards by Johnson, the senior who transferred to Clemson from SMU this past offseason. The win improved the Tigers to 41-0 against teams from the FCS. “We definitely made some strides,” Johnson said, noting it was the most points the offense has put up in a game this season. “But we've got more to go to get where we want.” It was a welcome result for the Tigers who were beaten here 41-13 by Atlantic Coast Conference favorite Miami two weeks ago.
