Wake Forest quarterback Riley Skinner remains questionable for this week's game at No. 10 Georgia Tech with a mild concussion.

Coach Jim Grobe said Tuesday that he's optimistic that Skinner will play, but says the decision will be made by the team's medical staff.

Grobe says Skinner hasn't experienced headaches or dizziness.

FLORIDA STATE: Longtime Florida State defensive coordinator Mickey Andrews is retiring after four decades of coaching and 26 years as one of Bobby Bowden's assistants.

A football star at Alabama under the coach Paul "Bear" Bryant, Andrews developed 18 first round NFL draft picks during 26 seasons at Florida State beginning with cornerback Deion Sanders in 1988.

CLEMSON: Clemson tight end Michael Palmer says he's clear-headed and ready for Florida State, two weeks after a concussion against Miami. He returned to practice Monday.

"It was one of the nastiest hits I've seen," Palmer said of the unintentional helmet-to-helmet hit by Darryl Sharpton after Palmer went airborne. "It just happened to be against me."
