1. Saturday, November 7: Clemson vs. Florida State

The battle for the best team in the ACC may come down to this game. The Seminoles finished eighth in the AP Preseason poll and while it may be a bit inflated, Clemson and Florida State are two of, if not the two best teams in the ACC.

Both should be having very similar records when it comes to this game on November 7. Though both teams will finish out the season with three more games, this will be a huge decision-maker in the final outcome of the ACC standings.

Notre Dame transfer Everett Golson will be leading this young Florida State squad toe-to-toe with the Tigers. Both teams are extremely talented and while Florida State will have to struggle with rebuilding their team to contenders again – after losing most of their starters to the NFL – both teams should be successful in the upcoming season.

For all ACC fans, this is one of those must-watch games and likely determines who will represent the ACC in the College Football Playoff.
