Dabo Swinney shares Clemson perspective for opening game with Georgia
Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said the Tigers will be tested early but won't put too much stock into the opening game, win or lose
Comments
Good, thought out comments from a guy I never liked. Against the Dawgs this year, what else can you say! Go Dawgs.
sounds scared for sure. Managing expectations
Relevant, neutral, head-on-shoulders HC comments.
Dabo is prepping his team and fan base for the upcoming beatdown by his neighbors 90 minutes south of Clemson on I-85.
The Dawgs will take great pleaseure in demolishing Clemson in Atlanta. After all, Clemson looks mighty during the serason while they beat all the patsies in the ACC. Overrated, overrated, overrated.
Dabo himself has been a meandering coach with the exception of when he recruited the franchise QBs (Washaun and Laurence). Otherwise, his long term talented OC and DC kept him competitive when Venables was the Deputy Head Coach.
But now Dabo is all alone and doesn't like the transfer portal.
What else can he say in such circumstances?
They are suppossed to have a top 4 defense. They have returning qb and always have good wrs and rbs. Georgia should win but it may be closer than some think. Assume Nothing.
And both DeShaun Watson, and Trevor Lawrence played HS football in Georgia. As did the QB of their 1st National Title team in 1981, Homer Jordan, from Athens, GA. I was a teammate with Homer for 3 years at Cedar Shoals..GoDAWGS!
Dabo realizes the talent disparity will result in a lose. If the Tigers can play a tight mistake free game they will be ready to make a run in the ACC. However, if it becomes a rout where Tiger ineptness and miscues cost them, it will be a long season and Tiger Nation will start the rumblings for a new direction.
I learned a long time ago to never underestimate an opponent or overestimate your own abilities. Our '24 Dawgs haven't won anything yet. Stay humble and hungry.
Go Dawgs!
