FSU had the better kicking game with Roberto Aguayo who made 21 of 22 field goal attempts compared to just 12 of 18 for Clemson.

The Noles averaged 10 yards per punt return compared to Clemson who averaged just seven yards per return.

FSU averaged 28 yards per kickoff return compared to Clemson’s 22.70 per return. FSU only allowed 18 yards per kickoff return compared to Clemson who allowed 20.53 yards per return.
