The countdown to kickoff is on! So let's hang out here and watch College Gameday and/or panic until the game thread goes up. Also, as you've heard by now, Jameis Winston is suspended for tonight's ENTIRE game -- which certainly changes a lot about the weekend's marquee matchup between Florida State and Clemson. I'm sure we'll be talking about that plenty. BUT, more importantly:
G'ORANGE!
