Kelly Fires Back at Swinney’s Grading Scale

LSU head coach Brian Kelly apparently doesn’t agree with Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney’s grading scale.

During his weekly Tuesday press conference, Swinney likened his team’s 17-10 loss against LSU this past Saturday to a “final exam” on the first day of class.

“It was a hell of a game,” Swinney said. “Down to the last play… It’s like getting the final exam, day one of class. They made a 65, we made a 58. Neither one of us were great.”

Kelly seemed to take Swinney’s comments as an insult to his team, as during his own Tuesday presser, Kelly fired back at Swinney and took a jab at Clemson’s head man.
