Who the experts are taking in FSU's game against Clemson

The Florida State Seminoles are looking to get their first home win over the Clemson Tigers since 2014, and with this Seminoles team also in the hunt to get back to a bowl game for the first time since 2023, Saturday's match will go a long way to determine if they get there.

When asked about his thoughts going into Clemson week, head coach Mike Norvell spoke about playing the Tigers.

“We have all the talent in the world and when we’re playing well, we can play really, really well. [We're] just taking it one play at a time. That’s kind of been our mindset," he said.

On Clemson quarterback Tait Reynolds, Norvell said, "This is a very talented quarterback, and it's one that you see a true freshman that is out there. There's times that he's done really well and maybe the result wasn't what he wanted."

But what do the experts have to say about this game? Find out here ahead of Saturday's 7 p.m. ET kickoff from Tallahassee.
