Tigers are a 10-point favorite over the Pack. State is 4-3 overall and 1-2 in ACC

Swinney says he's thankful for another opportunity this week. NC State is tough and physical and aggressive and well-coached and know their scheme. On defense, they are an odd front, double cloud

Big OL that can move their feet, three backs that rotate in and out

Can't let them get comfortable in the run game. Need to get back on track on third down. Big challenge to not let them have big play explosives

If that be the case and we are going to get back on track on 3rd down defense, then somebody needs to inform Porky so he doesn't go into 3-man rush with DB's 20 yards deep. That might help some.

They will know more on Justin Mascoll today. WR Antonio Williams is out. S RJ Mickens is out after surgery to take his appendix out.

On winning this week, Dabo says it's a simple answer. Win the turnover margin. Clemson is last in turnover margin. He knows there are other issues. But the reason they are where they are is turnovers. And it's where they are, too. And the Tigers are dead last in redzone

On redzone issues, Swinney says it's been from the one, next time they will jump offsides and go from the six (that was tongue in cheek, I think). Swinney says guys are pressing a little bit.

Dabo's attempt at humor is getting more and more "forced" and entirely inappropriate......as in "Lose to rid the wagon of fans"

On Cade, he needs to get bigger and stronger, needs collision resistance. Says Cade is going through a little bit of a growth process.

Poor Cade needs all the strength and size he can get, given that crap ### offensive line he has. The kid probably has PTSD as much as he’s running for his life.

Swinney reiterates that the pieces to the next championship are in place. Loves the last two recruiting classes and another class coming in.

We get it Dabo, this isn’t a fun place to be and very few of us expected it to be this bad. I speak for many when I say all we really want to hear you say is there are major issues and you’re gonna fix them. We understand they can’t be fixed overnight, maybe not even next year but if you make an active and public attempt to correct it that’s all we can ask of you.

Really? I don't think anyone on the team or in the program needs to mutter the word "championship". Never heard of a 4-3 team and a program steady declining (now rapidly declining) talk about championships so much.
In other words, don't speak it into existence. Manifest it!

I asked about Mafah, a bigger back on the goal line, Dabo laughs and said they will use anybody. Reminds the media that Mafah also fumbled on the 1 and it went 70 the other way. "We've tried that, too."

Sounds like RB Jay Haynes got rolled up in a scrimmage during the open date. Not sure on his return

On OL depth, losing Walker Parks hurt. Mayes has not played well the last two games. He thinks they have good depth.

We might have good depth, numbers wise, but those "depth" players are not very good right now, and neither are the starters.

Swinney said he texted Tony Elliott about 3 AM after the Cavs big win over UNC. Swinney said he was on the plane home from Miami and sent the text.
