For one final briefing before tonight’s big game against No. 5 Clemson, take a look at some of head coach Dabo Swinney’s pregame quotes in a recent interview from the ACC. Swinney remarks a couple of his points of emphasis leading up to the Tech game, including forcing turnovers and keeping Tech out of manageable late-down play distances. The turnover point in particular is something that Paul Johnson and the Tech coaching staff are unquestionably preaching themselves; the odds of beating a top-five team while losing the turnover battle are not great. One could be survivable only if everything else is clicking, but any more errors — especially one of the unforced variety, like a botched pitch — would be catastrophic.
