After playing sparingly the last three seasons for second-ranked Clemson, Dorian O’Daniel is ready to start at strong side linebacker as the Tigers prepare for their Sept. 3 opener at Auburn.
The redshirt junior says the defense will focus on their game plan regardless of the questions marks on Auburn’s offense.
O’Daniel discusses preparing for Auburn, the versatility and depth on Clemson’s defense, Korrin Wiggin’s recovery and much more.
Question: How does it feel to finally start talking about and preparing for Auburn instead of the depth chart and summer camp?
O’Daniel: “We’ve spent the whole summer going against each other and we’re just really excited to get out there and start dialing in on game prep.
