Watch Clemson's Dabo Swinney gets a Halloween scare from his team

While Clemson waited to see where they would fall in the first set of College Football Playoff rankings, they decided to have a little Halloween fun after a team meeting. 

Unfortunately for head coach Dabo Swinney, the fun came at his expense. 

- "Coach Swinney will have fun with this right?"

- "It's Coach Swinney."

- "Say no more."

Luckily, the coach and the team were able to get a good laugh out of the prank.
