Duke hosts Florida State on Friday night. The Blue Devils are 5-1 in their first season under Manny Diaz. They’re chasing bowl eligibility and their first-ever win against the Seminoles. FSU has won all 22 meetings. Only one has come by single-digit margins. FSU opened the year as the ACC title favorite after winning last year’s crown. But the Seminoles have just one win so far. Both teams are coming out of an open week.
