00:00Kevin the summer months we all looked at this opening Saturday of October and ACC action and said, Tallahassee, Florida

00:06Florida State Clemson a game that might decide the ACC title race right here right now

00:13Except this looks very very different a 1 in 4

00:18FSU team that was absolutely hammered last week on the road in Dallas by SMU quarterback questions

00:24We expect Brock Glenn to start today DJ. We on the Lele dealing with a right throwing hand injury in a Clemson team

00:32That looked dreadful week number one against Georgia scoring only three points

00:36Yeah

00:37They've been a perfect three and oh straight up and against the number since winning by an average margin of more than 30

00:43Points per game which leads us to this Saturday and a fourteen and a half point spread in favor of the Tigers in

00:51Tallahassee, how do you make it make sense?

00:52So this is one of these I think we kind of all do this where we see the board

00:57You'll see the numbers

00:58But then you take your time to dive in and I saw this number at fourteen and a half and said to myself

01:04Man, you know Clemson's obviously off to a great start this year

01:08FSU going to Death Valley. That's gonna be a tough task and then I

01:13Skims in Florida State

01:15Man that's a lot of points

01:17that is a lot of points for Florida State to be catching in their own building and you go through Mike Norvell's

01:23coaching history and

01:25He in his first year at Memphis lost once

01:28By more than two touchdowns in his own building and that was the only time at Memphis his first year at Florida State that opening

01:34Year, he lost once by two touchdowns. That was the only time it happened the third time in his coaching career

01:39He lost a home game by two touchdowns happen this year against Boston College

01:43If today they don't cover this game

01:45That means he would match his entire career total of home losses by two touchdowns in the first

01:51Three home games that they have this year first four home games. They would speak to how bad this thing is gone. I

01:58Have to take Florida State lost the points because I look at Clemson and in their last

02:0415 road games over the last three seasons only three times they've beaten a team by more than two touchdowns again

02:11This is a lot of points, I think the DJU absence helps FSU

02:17It's not that Brock Glenn is better. It's how to give Florida State a little extra. Okay, you know what?

02:23We needed to change it gives Clemson a little less zing heading into the game because there's some we're gonna pick on this kid

02:29We're gonna bully this kid here. He was in our pro. Nah Brock Glenn who cares you lull yourself all of a sudden

02:35I know no one's lulled going to FSU it happens. It's the way this sport works

02:39I think the Seminoles cover this game. I fully believe they can win this game out right here and stun Clemson

02:46Yeah, it is their Super Bowl

02:47So I understand I understand the look in regards to Kevin I dare dead to me as far as I'm concerned based off of last week

02:54I was dead wrong in regards to that breakdown

02:56Against that some of you now the numbers perspective. Yeah, I'm sin has won seven of the last eight in the series

03:02They lost last year in Death Valley in overtime

03:053124 last time Florida State won in Tallahassee against Clemson was back in

03:112014 with Jimbo Fisher, so yeah, that's a cause of concern, right?

03:14So again, I agree with Kevin Brock Glenn can't be any worse than DJ

03:18You did one problem I do have in regards to Florida State as a whole

03:23Undisciplined 10 penalties 79 yards last week that hurts minus 5 and turnover margin that hurts

03:30They're not running the football 62 yards per game

03:33So they're gonna need a monumental effort and when you have the better quarterback on the other side

03:37We're Kate Club Nick 12 touchdowns to interceptions

03:40They won the last three games by an average margin of 32 points per game

03:44My heart tells me Florida State, but I it's a no play for me. I'll root it in for Kevin

03:50Hopefully they can come in this weekend
