| - - Saturday, October 27, 2018, 11:55 AM |
The ACC showdown between No. 2 Clemson and Florida State at Doak Campbell Stadium will start at noon on Saturday.
The Tigers (7-0) are currently a 17-point favorite with 49.5 over/under against the Seminoles (4-3) and ESPN's Football Power Index has Clemson as a 91.5% road favorite. Florida State has lost five straight games against ranked opponents. ESPN’s College GameDay panel weighed in with their predictions live in Jacksonville, Florida: Desmond Howard picked Clemson: Clemson defense is going to get after the Seminoles defense. I got Clemson in a real dogfight. Clemson has too much offense. Celebrity guest picker Evander Holyfield picked Clemson. Kirk Herbstreit picked Clemson: I see Lawrence with big plays in the air. Florida State hangs around but give me Clemson. Lee Corso picked Clemson: The Noles cover. David Pollack picked Clemson: This (Trevor Lawrence) is why Clemson is the second best team in the country. The Clemson flags were front and center during the show: What a view @CollegeGameDay ! #clemson #clemsontigerseverywhere #clemsonalumni #gotigers #beatfsu #IWentToClemson #flyingtheflag pic.twitter.com/fAHEyRjsWO Here is an ESPN breakdown of Trevor Lawrence's play last week: Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence is doing a great job vs the blitz. NC State blitzed him 22 times; his QBR was nearly perfect on those plays, 98 out of 100. Pretty good for a true freshman!
