It appears that patience is running thin with Clemson football fans, for head coach Dabo Swinney. Swinney’s Tigers team was booed on Saturday, as they struggled to post points in a matchup with North Carolina.

“Clemson ends the half with an 18-play, 88-yard drive that ends with a FG and a whole lot of boos,” college football insider Stewart Mandel posted to X, formerly Twitter.

Video went viral on social media from ESPN, that showed a Clemson wide receiver wide open on a play. The Tigers offense wasn’t able to capitalize on the situation. At that point, Clemson had the ball inside North Carolina’s five-yard line.

Clemson’s fortunes didn’t turn around much in the second half, as again the Tigers had to settle for a field goal. Once again Tigers fans were booing.

Clemson fans already saw Swinney’s team get beat badly this season, in the season opener against LSU. The Tigers managed just 10 points in that contest. LSU defeated Clemson 51-10, which was the largest margin of defeat in Swinney’s career.

The Tigers enter Saturday’s game against North Carolina with a 1-1 record. After losing to LSU, Clemson followed that up with a win over Georgia Southern. Saturday’s game is the team’s ACC opener.

Clemson is looking to return to the College Football Playoff this season. Swinney has had much success with the Tigers, including two national championships. Despite that success, many national analysts feel he is on the hot seat in 2026.

Clemson and North Carolina continue playing at time of writing on Saturday. North Carolina enters the game with a 2-0 record.
