WATCH: Dabo Swinney's postgame press conference |
Clemson coach Dabo Swinney breaks down the 28-14 win over Wake Forest, updates injuries and more:
On the victory:
“I’m happy with the win. Wake Forest was a tough team to get ready for because they’re so deep and talented. I just like how we got ready throughout the week’s preparations, and we were locked in today and got off to a good start. One side of the ball was always there to pick the other ones up. We got control of the game early. I didn’t like how we finished, though, but we’re playing a lot of guys, and we’re committed to doing that. You have to let them experience growing pains. But I’m really proud of how we played today.”
On some of the key playmakers in the win:
“It seemed like guys on each side of the ball made great plays throughout, from Kelly Bryant completing 21 of 29 passes at quarterback on the offensive end to our pass rushers playing well on defense and guys making good plays in the secondary. Ray-Ray McCloud had a couple of big returns on special teams, too. It was just a well-rounded performance today.”
On his outlook for next week:
“We have another difficult test next week with a late game on the road. Since it’s a Friday game, tomorrow is like a Monday for us. We’re going to come in and practice tomorrow night and get ready for the next game. We have to take what we can from today’s win and build upon it as we continue to move forward.”
