The Clemson-South Carolina rivalry is intense, prior to Saturday's game Will Muschamp went to midfield to shake Dabo Swinney's hand, except the Tigers' head coach turned his back.
Muschamp waited for a second before waving him off and turning back towards his team.
Whether the snub is related to Muschamp's comments during the summer where he said Swinney's wife hit on him, we'll have to wait for an explanation.
"Your wife was hitting on me"

The two did eventually shake hands but it wasn't a warm embrace.
