The Clemson Tigers will return home for the first time since the win over Boston College looking to rebound following a 27-17 loss to Pittsburgh this past weekend.
The Tigers will take on ACC Atlantic Division rival Florida State in a game that will shockingly have no national relevance whatsoever. Just a few years ago, the winner of Clemson-FSU was going on to win the ACC every single year and the two teams were competing for supremacy at the top of the conference.
Now, as we head into this weekend, Clemson holds just a 4-3 overall record and Florida State sits at 3-4.
Despite the terrible seasons being had by these two teams, there is still a major rivalry brewing between these two fanbases and there’s no doubt the winner of this one will still have massive bragging rights, even if it just a game between two bad teams.

Clemson vs. Florida State Prediction Week 9
For those who have been following our coverage and predictions over the past few weeks, you’ve probably noticed that we’ve taken the Tigers’ opponent with the points– including picking Pitt to cover a 3-point spread and win the game last week–and we’ve been right on every occasion since Week 3.
So, this pick may surprise you a bit.
10 points is an enticing amount to give FSU and there’s no doubt that the smart pick here would be to take the Seminoles with the 10 points, but that’s not what we’re going to do here. There’s a gut-feeling this week that the Tigers finally put up some points offensively and the defense comes out with a chip on its shoulder after its worst performance of the season.
Maybe it’s just blind hope, but we’re taking the Tigers to win this one with a final score something like this: Clemson 28, Florida State 10.
