Dabo Swinney and the Clemson Tigers are off to a disastrous start to the 2025 college football season. Clemson had a bye this past weekend, giving Swinney and his team some time to gather themselves and prepare for Saturday's ACC clash against Bill Belichick and the North Carolina Tar Heels. Swinney spoke with reporters about the upcoming matchup on Tuesday and sent a clear message to his ACC coaching counterpart. We need a win a lot worse than he does," Swinney said, via team insider Chapel Fowler of The State Newspaper. While Swinney claims the Tigers need the win more, Belichick and his North Carolina program are 2-2 and also in need of a solid victory.
