Shutdown Fullback Breaks Down Clemson Vs. FSU

One of the most anticipated games of the weekend is between Clemson and Florida State. A win would put either ACC rival in the driver's seat for a BCS bid and possibly give them a chance to play for the national championship.

The analysts over at Shutdown Fullback provide their own unique take for Saturday's showdown.

After each team was lightly tested to start the season, Saturday's game will also serve as a barometer for where they are at. While both are ranked in the top-10, that is mainly based on preseason projections at the moment.

Clemson won last year's game, 35-30, behind a 141-yard performance from Sammy Watkins. The win propelled the Tigers toward a spot in a BCS bowl as the ACC's representative.
