Swofford disappointed SEC canceled Clemson-South Carolina game

Atlantic Coast Conference Commissioner John Swofford is disappointed the SEC made an announcement that has canceled traditional rivalry games between the two conferences this year.

Swofford said his disappointment is not really a criticism of the SEC, but the disappointment those are quality games, from the ACC’s standpoint, that could have been played.

“I was disappointed, but I would quickly add, I think that is the SEC’s decision to make,” he said Friday on the ACC Network’s Packer & Durham Show. “We took a different route as a conference and we were and are very comfortable with that route.
