Swinney thinks ‘the criticism is warranted’

During ESPN’s broadcast of Saturday’s game between No. 9 Clemson and NC State, color commentator Robert Griffin III shot it straight when giving his take on one of the issues he sees with the Tigers’ offense.

Clemson (2-2, 1-1 ACC) totaled just 214 yards and struggled to consistently find a rhythm offensively in its 27-21, double-overtime loss to the Wolfpack at Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh. The Tigers tallied only 10 first downs, went 2-for-11 on third-down conversion attempts and finished with seven three-and-outs.

D.J. Uiagalelei completed 12-of-26 passes for 111 yards with two touchdowns and one interception.
