CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) -- Dabo Swinney can handle most of the complaints about Clemson football, but he's heard enough from fans carping about the kickoff time for the Miami game.

Swinney says he's gotten several e-mails and letters from people bothered by Saturday's noon start at Death Valley. He told those who are upset to quit "quacking like a bunch of ducks" and get ready to make it loud at Memorial Stadium.

Clemson's previous two home games began at 3:30 p.m. Swinney said he has no input on when a game starts. He said his job is to prepare the team to play whether it's day or night.

Both teams enter the game with 2-1 records.
