This is a big game for both programs with significant ACC standings implications. The Eagles can climb back into the ACC race with a win, pushing their conference record to 4-4. Likewise, Florida State can ill-afford to drop to below .500 in ACC play with upcoming games against Maryland, Clemson and UNC, among others.
