Boulware also called Wilkins’ critics “losers with no friends” who were only trying to take attention away from Clemson’s 31-0 win.

“Ben is a bull in a China shop, and he answered it like a bull in a China shop,” Swinney said Saturday. “It’s unacceptable, and he apologized to his teammates and to me. He knows who we are. That’s not what we’re about. We don’t teach that kind of stuff. We play the game with great passion and will to win, but it was inappropriate. It’s just not what we do.”

Swinney must not have seen the video, proving otherwise.

Boulware has been unusually quiet heading into Monday’s title matchup with Alabama, according to ESPN.

On Saturday he was asked whether Swinney specifically addressed the issue with him. 

“Coach Swinney addressed it,” Boulware said. “We’re moving on, focused on Alabama.”
