ATLANTA – Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney sat on the podium underneath Mercedes-Benz Stadium and looked tired. He then admitted to what everyone saw Saturday.
“It was a good first half. Tough, hard-fought first half, and then they just freaking kicked our tails in the second half. So congrats to them. They're a great team,” Swinney said after the 34-3 loss to Georgia. “They've been a great team, and they showed in the third and fourth quarter what it looks like, but just really disappointed. And biggest thing is when you don't finish. Again, I've talked a lot about it, and I thought we did some good things in the first half.
