2015: Revenge & stepping onto the national scene

Coming off of a 2013 National Championship and a 2014 CFB Playoff appearance, Florida State entered the 2015 season without Jameis Winston and there seemed to be just a small crack in the armor.

Clemson entered the November matchup looking to clinch the ACC Atlantic Division for the first time in four years and the Tigers finally did it.

Though FSU held a 10-6 lead at halftime and the game was tied 13-13 heading into the fourth quarter, Deshaun Watson came through when the Tigers needed him most and the defense held FSU scoreless in the fourth quarter, resulting in a 23-13 win and a division title.
