Swinney takes comical jab at Herbstreit

Second-ranked Clemson cracked open the pizza boxes for its customary celebration after being selected for the College Football Playoff on Sunday.

The Tigers will take the field for the sequel to last season’s instant classic against Ohio State, this time in the Sugar Bowl on New Year’s Day.

Former Buckeye quarterback and ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit asked Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney how he was enjoying his pizza today.

And Swinney responded with his pizza analysis and poked fun at Herbstreit’s sons for their eagerness in the buffet line and asked a few questions of his own.
