Dabo Swinney isn't going to be able to avoid the questions about his team's tendency to give the ball away when he sits in front of television cameras to talk about Clemson's upcoming matchup against Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl. They have already started.
A reporter asked the head coach after the Tigers beat Virginia Tech to claim the ACC Championship, sometimes this year Clemson built big leads only to see them vaporize because it kept turning the ball over. That let teams make things interesting and against Pittsburgh, helped cost the Tigers a game. The Panthers won the turnover margin by two that day, fueled by forcing three interceptions to pull the upset 43-42.
