Overview
- Clemson won 24-10 at Memorial Stadium on Nov. 8 in front of 81,500 fans, dropping Florida State to 4-5 (1-5 ACC) and moving the Tigers to 4-5 (3-4 ACC).
- Florida State’s offense drew failing postgame marks after drops, a goal-line fumble by Tommy Castellanos and a late interception short-circuited scoring chances.
- Castellanos finished 23 of 43 for 250 yards with one touchdown and one interception, with Duce Robinson leading FSU receivers on nine catches for 124 yards.
- Cade Klubnik went 20 of 27 for 221 yards and a touchdown as Clemson totaled 319 yards, opened with a two-point conversion after its first touchdown and added three field goals after a flea-flicker score.
- Pregame reports listed FSU DL James Williams as a game-time decision and WR Jayvan Boggs as unlikely but monitored, as models and some betting lines had leaned slightly toward the Seminoles.
