The Tigers and coach Dabo Swinney are losing at Memorial Stadium at a historically bad rate, and they have a losing record to show for it after Saturday’s 35-24 loss to SMU, which dropped a lost Clemson team to 3-4 (2-3 ACC).

Clemson coach Dabo Swinney held it in for as long as he could before his internal thermometer finally exploded on the sideline during Saturday's 46-45 loss to Duke. Swinney's sideline tirade in the faces of his starting secondary was a microcosm of another team-wide failure during a lackluster season -- one that could be the Tigers' worst in more than two decades.
