00:04 >> Here's Dabo Swinney on the rivalry.

00:07 >> This is Clemson, Florida State.

00:08 None of that matters.

00:10 It doesn't matter, I mean, what the record is.

00:13 It doesn't matter who won last year.

00:14 It doesn't matter what you ranked.

00:16 This is a game that you better show up.

00:20 You better show up and be ready.

00:23 And it's certainly great for the ACC when you have

00:28 a lot of competitive balance like we have.

00:32 I think our league is really good.

00:34 We got a lot of good players and a bunch of great quarterbacks and

00:39 we play about every one of them.

00:41 So this is just another battle along the way.

00:44 It's gonna be a bunch of battles ahead.

00:46 But Clemson, Florida State, you can throw all that stuff out the record.

00:50 I mean, just like we're five and four and upset the number three team in the country.

00:54 It doesn't matter.

00:56 This is a game of passion.

00:57 This is a game of a few plays, typically every year.

01:02 >> Well, there you go.

01:04 >> Okay. >> Dabble for you.

01:06 FSU, Joe, minus two and a half, 55 and a half is the total.

01:13 This will be another one for me this week.

01:16 Doggy dog dog outright.

01:18 Clemson at home against FSU.

01:21 >> You're right about Clemson.

01:22 I mean, they have won five straight in the series by an average margin of

01:26 victory of 22.6 points per game carver straight up since 2014.

01:32 54 and two and I have to look back to the annals.

01:35 The last time that Clemson over the last seven years has been underdogs at home.

01:41 It doesn't happen.

01:43 Rarely it happens.

01:44 So this is an opportunity.

01:46 I like the way their defense is playing.

01:48 Now granted they got thrashed by Riley Leonard and Duke in week one, but

01:52 they're still only giving up three yards per carry 29% in third down defense.

01:58 And I still think dabble is a better coach than Mike Norvell.

02:02 Give me the Clemson Tigers in the mild upset.

02:04 I'm with you.

02:05 >> Yep, we're gonna take one last shot with Clemson Joe.

02:09 We're gonna try to plant the flag one more time with them here.

02:11 Florida State seems like the team on the rise, but

02:15 we're gonna give it one last shot with the old guard.
