00:00Let's go to the ACC to Tallahassee, Florida State at one and four welcomes in Clemson,
00:09who has won three consecutive games since the opening loss of the year against Georgia.
00:15And coach, you can almost hardly believe the number for a game at Doak Campbell, Clemson
00:2016 and a half point road favorite as that line continues to work in favor of the Tigers.
00:27Just how competitive do you think today's tilt is between the Noles and the Tigers?
00:30I'll tell you how competitive I think it's going to be.
00:34I'm taking Clemson against the spread.
00:37I mean, they're two programs going in different directions and Florida State has no answer
00:41for their biggest problem quarterback.
00:43They're going to go with Brock Lynn, this game, the quarterback that backed up GJU.
00:49He did not have great games last year in the two games that he played.
00:53They just don't have an answer there.
00:54They've got one of the worst offense out of 133, 15 points a game.
01:01They can't put any points on the board.
01:03On the other hand, Clemson has just taken off since that first game.
01:06And in that first game, remember they were, they were winning six at halftime and they,
01:11I think they played the game too close to the best, trying to hang on at Georgia, but
01:15they've exploded.
01:16The quarterback, K Club, Nick has done incredible deep, long, big plays.
01:20Not only do I think Clemson winning, I see them being against the spread as well.
01:24Coach, we talked about it during the week that it could potentially be Florida State's
01:28Superbowl, right?
01:29They have nothing to play for in regards to this matchup, but there's so many concerns.
01:34They can't run the football.
01:35They can't stop the run, penalties, turnovers.
01:39If you were a head coach in Norvell's spot, what can you do to at least make them competitive
01:45in tonight's game?
01:48You know what, at this point right now, one and four, I go through my roster and I pick
01:53out the guys that want to play, the guys that won't, and you've noticed in practice,
01:58remember this NIL thing, a lot of people, Florida State, excuse me, a lot of the players
02:03went to Florida State because they were 13 and one last year, they wanted to play for
02:07a championship.
02:08And I believe once they go to one and four, a lot of those guys aren't there for the right
02:13reasons and you lose them.
02:14So I'd make sure and look them in the eye, make sure you got players that are serious
02:18about it and want to win that football game, in that football game.
02:21I believe if you got to go with some young kids, go with some young kids and get ready
02:24for the future.
02:25Coach, as you well know, FSU in danger of having one of their worst seasons in a very
02:30long time, not less than five wins in Tallahassee since 1975, and then your father, the legendary
02:38Bobby Bowden took over the next year in 1976.
