If past encounters between these two teams are anything to go by, we’re in for an enthralling showdown. Both squads have had their ups and downs this season. Clemson’s startling opening-night stumble against Duke still echoes, while Florida State’s narrow escape against Boston College raised eyebrows.
In the buildup to this matchup, it’s worth noting that Clemson was pegged as a three-point home favorite, a testament to the home dominance they’ve displayed under the helm of Dabo Sweeney. Since 2009, Clemson boasts a staggering 95-9 record straight up at home and an even more impressive 34-1 over the last five years. They’ve rarely been underdogs at Death Valley, with it happening only seven times since 2009. But recent history, including a loss to South Carolina last year, has flipped the script.
The Tigers’ recent win over Florida Atlantic doesn’t entirely indicate their prowess, especially given the injury to FAU’s Casey Thompson. On the other hand, despite their hiccup in the fourth quarter against Boston College, Florida State looks primed for an upset.
Taking all into account, it’s time for a changing of the guard. Florida State appears poised to announce that the ACC’s road to glory may now run through Tallahassee rather than Clemson.
As the college football world gears up for a jam-packed Saturday, all eyes will first be on this noon kickoff between the Seminoles and Tigers.
