Tommy Bowden on Swinney USC rant


by -

David Glenn caught up on with ACC Network and Fox Sports South analyst Tommy Bowden on Glenn’s Tuesday afternoon radio show.

Bowden on the Swinney USC rant:

“I was criticized for making too much out of it and taking it [the rivalry] too seriously, but of course we beat them seven out of nine years. It’s going to be ratcheted up a notch or two now I can tell you that."

“If I could have played them [South Carolina] every week I would still be coaching,” joked Bowden.

Other topics discussed: how his father is handling retirement; whether bowl practices are really that important these days; what it’s like assembling a coaching staff when you move from one school to another; what it’s like recruiting in a new state; and what bowl matchups Bowden is looking forward to.
