However, FSU refused to play the game, though they had the required amount of players to play.
After the ACC announced the postponement, many Clemson players and others took to Twitter and reacted to the news.
We are disappointed that we will not be able to play today’s game against Florida State. Clemson has followed all of the ACC's protocol in preparation for this game. We look ahead to returning to action next week against Pitt for Senior Day and Military Appreciation Day. https://t.co/5VJK44iOjL

Sure sounds like Florida State punked out. That’s rock bottom.

Let’s say it was a real positive test and not a false positive.
There has not been a single documented case AT ANY LEVEL of Covid transmission from one team to another within a game.
FSU was looking for a reason not to play. Period.
