There doesn’t appear to be any hard feelings, though. Even though Clemson and Cook never sealed the deal, the sophomore from Miami has become a force for FSU, rushing for 1,037 yards and 11 touchdowns so far this season.

Cook and the Seminoles will travel to Clemson on Saturday in a game that will determine which program takes control of the ACC.
