Can't say I blame him. Kind of know how he feels...

The new term could be "Oklahoma'ing"



I'd be pissed too if I was getting BS questions like that with a 5-0 top 5 team having just beaten #6 ND and formerly ranked GT.

Not unlike our own Dan Mullen who until last year couldn't be mentioned by the media without them making much about him having never beaten a ranked West opponent except mississippi. Despite the fact I think every one we ever played to that point (save um) was top 10 if not top 5 and we were 2 TD underdogs.

Its called lazy journalism. Hang a tag on someone & then ride that horse with easy stories. The poor victim has to absolutely blow it out of the water to shake the tag.

I know the reporters aren't there to be the coach's buddy, but that was a pretty crappy question to ask.

He did get to blow some steam but teed up another story for em in the process...

They have a way of asking stupid questions, and at the wrong time.

After this his best course of action is to ignore any similar questions. Question asked, just act like like you didn't hear it and say 'next question'.

Never cared too much for Clemson as their fans tend to be on the jerkish side but Swinney has a point on this one.
