Dabo Swinney called Corian Gipson’s season-ending knee injury a “big, big loss” as Clemson turns to several options to replace one of its most versatile defensive backs.
Clemson stayed within striking distance of No. 4 Miami into the second half, but the Hurricanes took control at the line of scrimmage and pulled away for a 41-13 win in Death Valley.
Swinney says Christopher Vizzina continues to improve from a small fracture in his left elbow, but Trent Pearman would be Clemson’s second quarterback if needed against the Hurricanes.
