Swinney appreciates the rivalry between Clemson-South Carolina

When it comes to comparing it with other major rivalries from around the country, the Clemson-South Carolina game does get the same respect.

Of course, the Iron Bowl matchup between Auburn and Alabama is the biggest in the South. In the Midwest, its Michigan and Ohio State and then there is the Army-Navy Game.

But Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney feels the Clemson-South Carolina game, which dates back to 1896 and is the second oldest rivalry in the deep South, is underappreciated by the national media and college football fans.

“I don’t really know how to gage that, but from my lens it’s just very appreciated.
