The Florida State Seminoles will look for their second consecutive win when they travel to play the Clemson Tigers on Saturday night in primetime on the ACC Network. FSU continues to be a +2.5 betting underdog, but the majority of the bets and money are on the Noles, according to Fanduel.
It’s an interesting game because we saw FSU bounce back last week against Wake Forest when they looked dead in the water two weeks before in the Stanford game. Clemson looked like it wanted to quit (the defense anyway) on Dabo Swinney in their loss against the Duke Blue Devils last week.
It’s unreal to think that Clemson already has five losses, and a loss against FSU likely means they won’t go to a bowl game for the first time in a while, with games against Louisville and South Carolina remaining.
Does Clemson still care about the 2025 season? That’s the biggest question going into the game. Will they have a rebound performance like FSU had against Wake Forest? The good news for FSU fans is that the Noles have a much more talented roster than Wake Forest.
If Clemson is motivated, it’ll still be a tough game for the Noles because of how Clemson’s offensive strengths and FSU’s defensive weaknesses align. Here are five things to know about the 2025 Clemson Tigers.
