Left Sweeney And its top-ranked Tigers will stop by Notre Dame Stadium on Friday and check out the historic historic area, Touchdown Jesus and more. After all, you do it on your first trip to one of the most iconic places in college college football.

Sweeney met with the media on Tuesday to discuss this Saturday’s match No. 4 at Notre Dame (7:30 p.m., NBC). Clemson opened as a five-point favorite over the Irish and the line has remained stable at this point.

Clemson, who won a solo tour of Notre Dame Stadium so far in 1979, is trying to join USC (1931 and 1933), Michigan (1942 and 1978) and Missouri (1972 and 1978), as are his first two events. . Sports at Notre Dame Stadium. Note: Michigan and Missouri won their second game in a back-to-back game in 1978 when they were knocked out of the 1977 National Championship by the Mont Montana-led Notre Dame team.



Swinney said former Clemson SID (and Notre Dame Elm) teammates have told him they need to know about the journey, including the touchdown Jesus.

“I’m excited about it. Tim Boret has been talking about the game for two years.” “He can’t wait. He’ll be there for this. We’ll go to the stadium on Friday. When we go to some places where we weren’t, we usually go to the stadium to check him out. If we go to Syracuse, Because it’s a unique setting, we’ll stop by. Until Touchdown Jesus, I’m excited to see it. “

Swinney said the Tigers will not be able to make the same mistakes they have made in the last few weeks and expect to win.

“There is a small margin for error in this game. We have to cut some of the mistakes that have given points to other teams in particular. Notre Dame ranks fourth for one reason. They are disciplined, well trained and play hard. Their offensive line is wide. They have experience. His QB has been there for a while. He is a great player, instinctive, savvy. Their tight ends are large, physical. They have a group of employees. They have some receivers really emerging. They are a perfect team. They are also designed to run football. It all starts with their boys ahead.

“Defensively, he’s as good as you’ll see. He’s talented. His supporters are physical, fast and smart. He’s secondary, has a lot of speed and athleticism. But when you see a ranked team you can expect. It’s. It’s one. There will be amazing matchups. I have never been to Notre Dame. Their tradition is incredible. This is a historic historical program and brand. We are excited to compete against the best people in their place. ”



The team today is election day – and will not practice and started the game prep on Sunday.

“Our people have had a good week at this stage. We are making the best use of it.” Said Swinney. “Today is a prep day as a staff. We got a good start on Sunday night. Yesterday Tuesday – type practice for us. After lunch on Friday we’ll go there for a while and kick it off on Saturday night.”

Quarterback DJ Yuagaleli, Who made his first start to a win over the Boston Cover Ledge, will also start in the South Band this weekend and will have to read and make quick decisions.

“That’s the key to playing quarterbacks. There is a lot going on. This is again 1990’s, where you make some decisions in the pass game, “said Sweeney. “These are decisions that happen instantly after all the time in 2020. It could be a run, a screen, a pass, it could be a QB run. You’re processing what’s going on as per coverage and you should know your progress. He did an amazing job early on. He threw a few easy ones, but he finished 72 percent. And BC made it a throw-game. And I don’t blame him. The DJ was terrific. Wasn’t on the line. We went the wrong way and he had to catch the ball. This will be a different animal for him this weekend. Notre Dame has elite talent. We have to play with clean and good, agile execution. “

Charlotte’s ACC Championship Game could be re-played on December 19th.


“We’re both top five teams. I’d say it could be a lot of potential. This will be a hack of the game,” Swinney said. “Whoever wins, you don’t have to punch your ticket. We don’t. We have to play division this year. Whatever happens in this game, even if you win, you still have more games to play, if you lose. “It doesn’t mean you’re out. Both teams will fight, scratch and claw. We still have to be ready for the next opponent. Every single week there is a playoff football when it comes to trying to get to Charlotte. Our number.” 1 goal is to win the league. Usually it’s to win the division. “
