It seems like Clemson Tigers head coach Dabo Swinney loves throwing shade at the Tennessee Vols for seemingly no reason at all. 

Almost a year ago, Dabo made some comments about the Vols "flipping burgers" in anticipation of locking in a College Football Playoff spot before Tennessee's shocking loss to South Carolina.
