Clemson Tigers head coach Dabo Swinney had plenty to say after his team knocked off the (No. 6) Notre Dame Irish 24-22 on Saturday night.
Unfortunately, ESPN was more interested in airing “SportsCenter.”
Swinney was delivering a great postgame interview, and had just thanked God and his father. That’s when ESPN cut to two unsuspecting “SportsCenter” anchors who were on mobile devices.
ESPN released a statement on its gaffe.
As a result of an error in TV transmission, we inadvertently missed 12 seconds of Dabo Swinney’s postgame interview. We apologize.

You owe Dabo 12 seconds of airtime, ESPN, and the clock is ticking.
