Dabo Swinney Congratulated Syracuse in Locker Room Visit After It Upset Clemson.
Clemson Tigers head coach Dabo Swinney paid a surprise visit to Syracuse's locker room
Friday to congratulate the Orange on their 27-24 upset victory over the defending national
champions at Carrier Dome in New York.
Syracuse defensive tackle Kayton Samuels tweeted about the visit:
"He came in and congratulated us, just saying, 'Great win,' and that was probably one of
the most class-act things I've ever seen," Syracuse linebacker Zaire Franklin told ESPN.com's
David M. Hale.
Clemson entered Friday's game 6-0 and ranked No. 2 in the Associated Press Top 25 and Amway
Coaches Poll.
The Tigers were riding an 11-game winning streak dating back to last November.
Per ESPN's Adnan Virk, Clemson was a 23.5-point favorite, and its loss to Syracuse was its
biggest upset defeat in the past 40 years.
The Orange improved their record to 4-3, and they are two wins away from becoming bowl-eligible
for the first time since 2013.
They will have to ride this wave of momentum, however, with road games against the Miami
Hurricanes and Florida State Seminoles looming.
