Florida State (4-5, 2-5 ACC) is coming off back to back losses for the first time this season and must travel into the frozen north in a bid to knock off the No. 3 ranked team in the country. Notre Dame (9-0) is just a win over FSU away from locking up an undefeated home record this season. The Seminoles are 6-2 all-time over the Irish, and have won the last three match-ups going back to 2003. In fact, the 2003 game was the last time FSU played Notre Dame in South Bend, which FSU won handily 37-0. This is the first match-up between Brian Kelly and Willie Taggart as head coaches.
