Swinney says Clemson is underdog for a reason

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said Tuesday that Florida St. is a prohibitive favorite this weekend for a reason, while the Tigers are "not a great" football team at this point. Full Story »

I think you meant, "You're on the bench for a reason, Chad Kelly."

I really don't think they're stupid enough to press Sammy


Sep 18, 2012, 12:27 PM

or Nuk. That's just asking to get your DB killed.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think they'll start the game that way


Sep 18, 2012, 1:31 PM

That's their style of defense. If Nuk or Sammy burn them they'll adjust out of it. But I think they'll stay with it until we do burn them. With that sick nasty DL it's going to be tough to burn them. Tajh will be running for his life all game.

Dabo reminds me of the guy who ordered a dozen eggs and


Sep 18, 2012, 12:57 PM

a whole loaf of toast. Waitress asks, "How you like your eggs?"

"OH,I LIKE 'EM!"

Hate to say it, but it sounds like this would be the interview after the game (after we lost). Yes, it is a long season, but at this point, the only thing I care about is winning THIS game. Yes, if we did happen to lose, I would try to regroup and tell the guys that it is a long season and we need to take care of business in the remaining games, but this isn't a very persuasive interview that we are confident that we can win.

" I'm on the inside, and I like where I'm at." Sounds fine.***

Sep 18, 2012, 1:27 PM

Yes - one sentence; compare that to a paragraph of "the season isn't over if we lose" - just saying, there should never be "if we lose" prior to a game.

I understand your sentiments. I think it's sandbagging FSU.***

They haven't changed much on D from last year. Our OL is


Sep 18, 2012, 1:36 PM

much better than last year. I don't see any drop off on our O, but the question for me is D and containment against the rush without giving up the deep balls over the top.

Nothing Swinney says to the media has anything to do with whether we can win on Saturday. Whether we win is determined by three things and three things only: preparation during the winter and summer workouts, preparation this week in practice and meetings, and execution Saturday night on the field.

Mid-week interview are largely irrelevant...

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I didn't read that into it at all.


Sep 18, 2012, 2:26 PM [ in reply to Re: Front Page Story: Swinney says Clemson is underdog for a reason ]

Dabo seems confident but very respectful and mindful of FSU's strengths and our weaknesses. All in all, very balanced. Very professional.

What's he supposed to say, "They suck! We're gonna kill those guys!"?

Just play Tony on D


Sep 18, 2012, 3:23 PM

He is better than 34 and 46

Re: Just play Tony on D


Sep 19, 2012, 6:56 AM

34 and 46 both looked pretty good on the replay I watched last night of last year's game. I'm assuming they can play the same at Doak.

Is that picture photoshopped? Looks like Sammy's face on Steward's body. Don't remember Sammy having arms like that ... or wearing #7

Re: Front Page Story: Swinney says Clemson is underdog for a reason


Sep 19, 2012, 9:28 AM

I believe Sammy was originally assigned #7 but they changed him to #2 because he and Steward would both be playing on Special Teams
