Clemson will seek its 10th win of the season this week to push its streak of consecutive 10-win
seasons to nine, which would tie the 2001-09 Texas Longhorns for the third-longest active streak in major college football history.

Dabo says NC State has a lot of tricks and they use them. Very good at punt return. "They have some dudes that can do something with the ball."

Dabo says Travis Etienne has had a very good year. Says he had a bad day at UNC but has been great since. Says he has responded and they've gotten him involved in the passing game

That UNC game will always be brought up on how bad he was. Probably hear it on draft day. Crazy motivation I guess

About the craziness surrounding this game, Dabo says "It's the Textile Bowl. I guess that trophy is around here somewhere. We will load it up and take it up there."

Dabo was asked if Clemson is 15th tonight will he mention it to his team and he said no. "Maybe we will beat NC State and drop to 17th."

Dabo is asked about Willie Taggart, and he says he is glad they didn't fire him after 21 games. "13-8. And I would have been cheap to fire. I would have been real cheap to get rid of after 21 games. I am thankful to Terry Don that he believed in me."

And this press conference is over. We went down several rabbit holes and came out alive. What a time to cover Clemson
