“We've got a long ways to go, but we do have an opportunity to earn it,” coach Dabo Swinney said Monday, via ABCNews4. “And it is exciting."
“Of course, we still have a long way to go,” linebacker Barrett Carter said. “It's super exciting knowing we have all our goals in front of us and we still have a chance to fight for a spot to win this league. Whatever comes after that we'll see. But it's certainly exciting.”
