Former South Carolina football rival throws Clemson Tigers under the bus
South Carolina football fans hate the Clemson Tigers, so it doesn't hurt any Gamecocks' feelings when they hear less-than-positive things about their bitter rival. This week, in an interview on the Behind the Facemask podcast with host Alex Okafor (a former Texas Longhorns player who now hosts a Texas podcast), former Clemson defensive back Andrew Mukuba talked about his decision to leave the Tigers and join Steve Sarkisian's Texas program.

It won’t take long to see if Swinney’s latest bit of braggadocio has legs.

Swinney said his guys have shown chemistry, leadership and accountability to understand and not repeat the mistakes that got them off to a 4-4 start and eliminated their title hopes. “All those things, they all check the boxes,” Swinney said. “Now, we got to get out on the field, got to put the work in, get better and find a way to win some games on the field.”

This would concern me some if I believed the defense was going to perform as year's did for much of the season, but there are legitimate reasons to believe Clayton White's unit is going to be significantly better overall. I anticipate the defense doing a better job of containing the run and generating pressure at a higher clip than in 2023.
