Clemson running back Travis Etienne set the FBS record for most career games with at least one touchdown after scoring in a 39th game on Saturday against Miami.

With his two-yard run against the Hurricanes, Etienne surpassed former Florida quarterback Tim Tebow (2006-09) and Louisiana Tech running back Kenneth Dixon (2012-15). The standout has now scored in three of his four appearances this season.

He was named the ACC Player of the Year for the second time in 2019 after leading the conference with 19 rushing touchdowns. Etienne racked up 62 TDs through 43 games over his first three seasons at Clemson.

He returned for his senior campaign with the Tigers this season despite being considered one of the best NFL prospects prior to the draft last April.
