Travis Etienne blamed the cramping issues he dealt with during Clemson’s win over Syracuse on Saturday on the fact he only ate a bowl of Frosted Flakes for breakfast prior to the 12 p.m. kickoff at Death Valley.
Asked during his weekly Sunday interview with the media about Etienne’s explanation for his dehydration, Dabo Swinney didn’t seem sold on it – Clemson’s head coach is a fan of Frosted Flakes, personally – but he will take Etienne’s word for it and expects the star running back to make a different breakfast selection before this Saturday’s noon game against Boston College.
