Saturday night’s ACC championship game between Florida State and Georgia Tech began with a smoke screen.
There was a pregame fireworks display before the game, and a thick cloud of smoke erupted afterward. It was nearly impossible to see the field. Players, coaches and fans were all enshrouded in the smoke.
Check out the view from the press box.

The smoke eventually cleared. The Yellow Jackets are currently tied with the Seminoles with under six minutes remaining in the second quarter, 21-21.
