Swinney Gives Fiery Response When Asked About DL Rotation

Clemson’s new look defense, led by new coordinator Tom Allen, is still a work in progress.

After holding LSU to just 17 points in a season-opening loss and just seven a week later in the comeback win over Troy, the Tigers gave up 24 in a last-second loss to Georgia Tech last weekend.

Dabo Swinney was asked during his weekly press conference on Tuesday how he evaluated his defense through three games, and if players still getting acclimated to a new system were playing a part in some of the issues.

What Swinney wants to see most is his offense finding its groove, which in turn would result in more complementary football.
