Dabo is here. Says FSU is a really good football team. Says Tigers will need the 12th man this week. Will be an awesome environment. Two great teams and programs in a rivalry game early in the season. Clemson and FSU at its best

FSU is very experienced. Lot of guys that have played a lot of ball. Very physical up front. Misdirection with QB, get him out of the pocket, he makes explosive plays with his arms and legs. He's really dangerous and can beat you a lot of ways

Physical on both sides. Quality on both sides. Clemson will have to play well to win.

Swinney said his first Clemson-FSU was in '03. Clemson was 5-4 and things weren't really good but somehow made enough plays to win. Said he probably not sitting here if we didn't win that one

Swinney says this is a game that it doesn't matter the record or where you're ranked, it's Clemson and FSU, a lot of good players.

"This is Clemson-Florida State. It doesn't matter what your record is, who won last year, what you're ranked. You better show up and be ready."

Dabo Swinney said there is no chip on the shoulder with the rankings. "We've played three ballgames. We lost our opener on the road, and they are undefeated. That's just where we are. They don't give trophies out after three games."

On K Jonathan Weitz, Swinney says they went to the bullpen and brought him off the beach. Still confident in Gunn, who has all the talent in the world.

Gunn will handle kickoffs and maybe FG on anything Weitz will handle anything inside 45

Weitz was supposed to start his new job in NYC in two weeks and has already rented an apartment. Dabo said his new boss has been understanding

Swinney said he hopes this week's game with FSU doesn't come down to a kick. "I don't think my heart could take that"

Because the Pitt kicker didn't miss later that year. We weren't going very far with 2 ACC loses that year. Funny to look back on that season and see how we came so close to losing so many games, but ended up with a national championship.
Hopefully, it doesn't come down to us missing one this weekend.
