That's right, a contest. This is the first annual "Know your 'Noles Pick 3."
Every week, we will ask three questions about the upcoming Seminole football game. Anyone can play, as the questions are easy!
Oh, and there will be prizes.
1st Place will receive an FSU Gameday Polo (One of the nice, Dri-Fit ones by Nike) and 3 guest posts on TomahawkNation!
2nd Place will receive a Seminoles Hat or T-shirt and 2 guest post on TomahawkNation!
3rd Place will receive a guest post on TomahawkNation!
This Week's Questions:
1. Va Tech will probably take away the run, the Noles will be forced to the air. With that in mind, will the Noles average at least 7.5 Yards per pass?
2. FSU will focus on QB Tyrod Taylor. Will they be able to hold Taylor under 85 yards rushing?
3. Neither team allows the opponent to drive very often. Will the longest play be more than 50 yards?

Question
Does “play” in No. 3 include special team plays? I would assume the answer to that is no based on the lead-in to the question, but I wanted to make sure.
Ed
It actually means any play, including kick returns and such. Sorry of the wording is misleading.

Guys,
I am leaving for tally and my not be on.
Question 1 is per pass, as it says, not per completion.
Question 3 refers to any play that registers 51 yards. If the interception is returned for 51 yards, that counts.
hold on a second here...
So any play counts for #3?
Just messing around. I hadn’t read any of the previous comments when I posted my predictions.
Ugly, but confident win...
1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes
Go Noles!!!
