Dabo Swinney gave his players an important life lesson in mid-August when uncertainty swirled around whether there would be a college football season – you have to fight for the things you love.

Swinney said all along that he hoped and thought there would be a 2020 college football season, a narrative that didn’t sit well with many in the national media who publicly lobbied for the season to be canceled.

However, Swinney still felt good about the chances for a season when fall camp started in early August and felt good about the processes in place to ensure that the season would happen, and happen safely.
