Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney talks Clemson’s cancelled Georgia series

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney recently spot about the Tigers’ future series against Georgia being cancelled.

The Clemson Tigers and University of Georgia have recently canceled four planned matchups, eliminating games scheduled for 2029, 2030, 2032, and 2033. Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney expressed his disappointment with the decision, stating that he believes it negatively impacts fans. He acknowledged that college football should continue to evolve, but he prefers a different approach to scheduling.

Swinney would rather see conferences adopt a nine-game conference schedule instead of 11 Power Four games. The cancellation marks the end of a century-old rivalry, with Georgia leading the all-time series 44-18-4, and the most recent meeting resulting in a 34-3 victory for Georgia in 2024. Clemson will now need to find replacement opponents for future seasons, though its upcoming games against Notre Dame and Oklahoma remain on the schedule.
