The Storylines

Saturday’s game will be Clemson’s 2024 road opener. The Tigers opened the season in Atlanta in a neutral-site contest against Georgia. Clemson then returned for a three-game homestand that also included the first of Clemson’s two open dates in 2024.

Saturday’s game being played on Oct. 5 represents Clemson’s latest road opener since Oct. 9, 2008, when Clemson’s 12-7 loss at Wake Forest in its road opener led to Clemson elevating Dabo Swinney to interim head coach the following week. Saturday’s game will tie for Clemson’s fourth-latest road opener since joining the ACC in 1953.

Barrett Carter gets the sack on Brock Glenn as the Seminoles go 3-and-out on their first possession. Former Clemson QB DJ Uiagelelei is out tonight with an injury.

Tigers will get the ball back -- just getting going in Tallahassee with 12:05 to play in the first. No score.

Touchdown Clemson. Antonio Williams makes two guys miss on his way to the end zone on the deep ball. That's a 57-yard strike for Clemson's first touchdown of the evening.

Touchdown FSU. Brock Glenn connects with Amaree Williams for a 13-yard TD. A nice response from the Noles -- Landen Thomas with a 25 yard reception to set up the score.

Clemson on the move again after a heck of a grab from Josh Sapp. Tigers in Seminoles territory trying to get points before the half.

Timeout Clemson. They want to talk this 3rd and 6 over, up 23-7 looking for more. 5:15 to play in the 3rd.

Clemson couldn't convert on 3rd and 6, and FSU has the ball facing 3rd and 9 themselves.

4:22 left in the third -- Clemson up 23-7.

Tigers force a punt and the offense will get the ball back. Let's see if Clemson can punch it in on this drive with 4:06 to play in the 3rd.

The Tigers have 391 yards of offense but Clemson's drives have stalled out in the red zone.

And another field goal has been blocked -- the second one on the night. Florida State has the ball back as we have come to the end of the third quarter.

Clemson's given up two blocked FGs, but it seems correctable for sure.

Touchdown FSU. Ja'Khi Douglas scores from 12 yards out and beats Shelton Lewis on the slant. The Noles will go for two to try to make it an 8-point game with 9:36 to play in the contest.

Two point try is no good.

Clemson leads by 10 with 9:36 to play in the game, up 23-13. The Tigers have slept walk through this second half offensively with a lot of conservative play calling -- only 78 yards of offense in the third quarter. This is a big drive coming here offensively.

Noles have just 18 yards rushing but yet were a play away from making it a one-score game. Wild.

A 58-yard run for Phil Mafah gets Clemson into scoring territory, but the Tigers have to settle for another field goal. This one is good from 21 yards out.

We have reached the two-minute warning here in Tallahassee. It appears Clemson will kick another field goal to go ahead and close this one out.

FINAL | Clemson 29, FSU 13

Tigers go to 4-1 on the year and put up exactly 500 yards of offense. Clemson knocked through five field goals and while they didn't play exactly great offensively, they put up points. The defense held Florida State to 22 yards rushing and limited the Noles' big play ability. There is definitely a lot Clemson can continue to improve on as they continue their road stand next week in Winston Salem against Wake Forest. Kickoff is at noon. See y'all next week.

With the win, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney surpasses the late Bobby Bowden for all-time wins in ACC history with 174.
