COLUMBIA, S.C. — Clemson’s C.J. Spiller has set an NCAA record with his seventh career kickoff return for a touchdown to start the 15th-ranked Tigers’ game at South Carolina.

Spiller was stopped on the 25-yard line on the first kickoff Saturday, but the Gamecocks were called for offsides. He took the second kick and cut left for the score.
Spiller’s mark surpasses the six of Southern California’s Anthony Davis and Tulsa’s Ashlan Davis.
The return also moved Spiller past 7,000 all-purpose yards, the fifth player in NCAA history with that many.
