You guys are coming off great, btw...I see where you fans get it from.  Sorry this blowout loss brought out so much emotion...

TV cameras showed Syracuse head coach Scott Shafer directing a profanity-laced outburst towards [URL='http://www.tigernet.com/clemson-football/coach/Dabo-Swinney-1']Dabo Swinney[/URL] in the second quarter when Clemson went for a touchdown instead of kicking a field goal right before halftime up 35-7. Swinney was asked his reaction in his postgame press conference.

"Were we supposed to take a knee?" Swinney said. "The game is never over until the last second ticks. I won't take it easy in the second quarter. We thought a touchdown would be a better deal right there."

For his part Shafer said that "The thing is, football is an emotional sport, anybody who knows me knows I'm extremely emotional, sometimes over the top. I said a few things out there today that I feel bad about, I really do. In the heat of the moment they were the same things I said on the basketball court or the football field when I was a kid playing, but I'm an adult now and I need to constrain myself a little bit better."
