Dabo Swinney wants to win. And to do that, Clemson’s head coach can’t worry about hurting someone’s feelings.
His job is to try and win as many football games as possible for Clemson while helping his student athletes along the way. That is why Swinney is playing two quarterbacks right now. For the second week in a row, the Tigers will start Kelly Bryant, but freshman Trevor Lawrence will play as well when the second-ranked Tigers take on Texas A&M this Saturday at Kyle Field in College Station, Texas.
Clemson is one of several teams playing two quarterbacks right now, and during Tuesday’s weekly press conference Swinney was asked if the two-quarterback system in college football was becoming a new trend.
