Top-ranked Clemson heads into today’s game at Death Valley with a different kind of challenge. The Tigers are a heavy favorite against a Syracuse team that is reeling at the moment.
The Orange has been decimated by injuries and players who have opted out due to COVID-19. All the attrition has caught up to the program, as they come in 1-4 overall (1-3 ACC) and fresh off a home loss to Liberty.
“It is so easy to look at their record and say, ‘Oh well, they are not a good team’ or something like that, but that is not how we operate,” Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said.
