Dabo Swinney is getting his Clemson team ready to face a South Carolina squad that just knocked off a top-5 team in blowout fashion.
On Monday, Swinney shared some of his thoughts on the Gamecocks’ 63-38 win over Tennessee. Per Anna Adams of 247Sports, Swinney had high praise for South Carolina QB Spencer Rattler and his offensive line for the pass protection it provided. Rattler was 30-of-37 passing for 438 yards and 6 touchdowns.
Swinney tonight: Rattler had “forever and a day” in pocket. “Tennessee is not built defensively, they’re built to outscore people.” Said Rattler played awesome & all the credit goes to South Carolina for dominating that game.

Swinney believes Tennessee wasn’t mentally focused on Tennessee and was looking ahead to the College Football Playoff.
More Dabo on Tennessee: “They’re flipping burgers during the conference championship weekend, like are we going to Atlanta or Phoenix, and next thing you know you forget you gotta go play.”

Safe to say Swinney will have his Tigers focused on Saturday before starting to think about the ACC Championship Game.
Saturday’s game in Clemson is set for noon ET on ABC.
