Fifth-ranked Clemson can stamp itself as the overwhelming favorite to win the ACC’s Atlantic Division when it hosts No. 10 North Carolina State on Saturday night. The Wolfpack was picked to finish second in the division in the preseason and has its highest ranking since 2002. The Tigers are coming off a close win over Wake Forest, their other top challenger. This week’s slate also has the Demon Deacons playing at unbeaten and 23rd-ranked Florida State. Coach Dave Clawson’s defending Atlantic Division champions have won their last two meetings with the Seminoles.
