Clemson coach Dabo Swinney created quite the stir last week when his vote in the final USA Today Coaches Poll had Ohio State 11th. He explained then, as he did Monday, that was not out of disrespect for the Buckeyes, but rather his belief the teams that played a full schedule, or a nearly full schedule, should be the ones ranked for the playoffs. That vote stirred up Buckeye fans making Swinney public enemy #1. Swinney took on questions about that and his team prep for Friday night’s game during a Zoom call with the media Monday morning.
