Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney is not impressed with Ohio State.

The Tigers and Buckeyes are slated to meet January in the College Football Playoff, and there’ll be NFL talent all over the field. However, when it comes to scouting for the game, Swinney isn’t sweating! (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

“Obviously, you’re going to study their games this year. That’ll be a quick study for as there were only six,” Swinney said Monday morning during an appearance on the ACC Network.

When asked to clarify what he meant, Dabo doubled down and stated, “It does make it a little easier ’cause there’s not as much tape to pour through. You can’t make it up, there’s only six games.”

In case you thought that was the only shot Swinney was going to take on the Buckeyes, he ranked them 11th in the final Coaches Poll of the season.

Yeah, I think it’s safe to say that Dabo isn’t too impressed at all with the Ohio State Buckeyes. In fact, he’s damn near making a joke out of this matchup, and I’d advise against that.

While OSU might have only played six games, Swinney is simply insane if he thinks they’re not a top four team.

He ranked them 11th! Just like Ryan Day giving him ammo with his locker room speech, Swinney is sending machine guns over to OSU to use against the Tigers with these antics.

This January 1 matchup can’t get here fast enough. Both sides are taking shots, and it’s a great example of why we love college football. It’s going to be one hell of a fun game.
