It would be hard to write a more fitting denounement – a half-hearted effort leads to the Holes getting taken behind the woodshed for some sweet, sweet Shreveport schadenfreude. A garbage time TD cut the final margin to 41-24 – but it was never in doubt after the first quarter. Missouri is hardly a football […]

Dabo Fires Back at Spurrier
Nice to see another coach who is willing to stand up for his players, coaches, program and university. From Scout.com http://clemson.scout.com/2/1134735.html What about Spurrier’s comment, ‘We ain’t Alabama, we ain’t LSU, but we ain’t Clemson.’ It was kind of a derogatory tone. I wondered if you had a comment on that.Swinney: That’s sad I get […]
