FSU Football: 2016 Schedule Breakdown (Game By Game)
By Kelvin Hunt
8. player. 63. Clemson is coming off a 14-1 season, losing to Alabama 45-40 in the National Championship Game.. Tigers. ACC. Clemson
Ahhh Clemson. The defacto ACC Championship game for the past five-years or so. The beauty of where this game falls is that FSU spend some time prepping for Clemson during the Wake Forest week. No disrespect to Wake Forest, but things like this happens.
Clemson returns all world quarterback Deshawn Watson, running back Wayne Gallman (who should have gone in the draft this year), wide receivers Artavis Scott and Mike Williams.
The offense will put up numbers as it has over the past several years. The difference this year will be on the defensive side of the ball. Clemson has been recruiting at a very high level, but they will be young on defense…especially in the secondary where they have already lost some players this spring.
The Tigers will host NC State the week before playing FSU.
Clemson defeated FSU 23-13 in Death Valley last season, but will travel to Tally on October 29th.
Next: At NC State
