Dabo Swinney could become Clemson's all-time winningest coach on Saturday, but that has to be the furthest thing from the Clemson headman's mind as his Tigers are in Miami Gardens to take on the 4-2 Hurricanes.

Clemson needs some help, but they're certainly still in the ACC title race. A loss on Saturday would all but eliminate them from contention. After a bye week, fans and media alike will be waiting to see if the Clemson offense will ever hit its stride under first-year offensive coordinator Garrett Riley. We'll find out at 8 p.m. on the ACC Network.

Weather: It'll be a warm one in Miami Gardens for the Tigers and the Hurricanes. The temperature will be around 80 degrees at kickoff, falling into the 70s as the night goes on. There's only a two percent chance of rain, but humidity will be high, hovering around 65 percent.

Injuries: Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney is confident the team should have the services of wide receiver Antonio Williams and both cornerbacks Nate Wiggins and Sheridan Jones.

What they had to say: Miami head coach Mario Cristobal on Clemson: "Schematically, they present a lot of eyewash, a lot of challenges, but they're a physical, physical football team. Those are a lot of stacked classes of high-caliber talent, you know, coming together and they do a really, really good job. They're are a couple plays away from being six and oh, you know, so they present a lot of challenges. And again, we were looking forward to being at our best on Saturday."
