According to Heather Dinich of ESPN, she thinks that Clemson-FSU is clearly the best rivalry in the ACC over FSU-Miami.

FSU-Clemson means something now.

With Florida State and Clemson now the conference heavyweights, no game has been more meaningful to the ACC race or more highly anticipated. In each of the past four years, the winner of the FSU-Clemson game has won the Atlantic Division. In each of the past two years, it has produced the ACC champ.

Last year, ESPN’s College GameDay crew went to Tallahassee for what was an instant classic, as the Noles scored 35 points in the second half to beat Clemson, 49-37. Florida State went on to win its first league title since 2005. In 2011, Clemson beat FSU 35-30 to start out 4-0 for the first time since 2007. Clemson went on to win the school’s first ACC title since 1991. In 2010, FSU escaped with a 16-13 home win and knocked Clemson out of the Atlantic Division race.
