Spurrier takes another jab at Dabo Swinney


by -

South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier hadn't mentioned Dabo Swinney or Clemson in about a week so you knew it was coming. Speaking at the Columbia Touchdown Club, Spurrier mentioned Swinney when talking about high preseason rankings for the Gamecocks.

"At this time last year Dabo’s favorite USC, Southern Cal, was preseason number one in the country," said Spurrier. "I call them Dabo's favorite USC. But anyway, we are playing Dabo's favorite Carolina too. He loves North Carolina and Southern Cal for some reason. I don’t know."

Listen to Spurrier comments here at 9:20 minute mark. (Audio from SportsTalk Radio Network)

The reference to Dabo's USC and Dabo's Carolina comes from the infamous Dabo Swinney video from 2011:
