Florida State football: Opponent Recap - Week 8

Updates on Florida State football opponents are ordered as they appear(ed) on FSU's schedule.

- Texas State beat South Alabama by a score of 36-16. The Bobcats capped the game with a kick 6. Can you imagine how that must feel for South Alabama?!?!

- South Florida overtook Chad Morris's SMU 38-14. QB Quinton Flowers had a record day in the romp of the Mustangs.

- Offense was optional during the Thursday night tilt of Louisville at Boston College but the cardinals got the win with the more dominating night.

- NC State (Week 11, 11/14) used a big 1st quarter to propel themselves to a win over Wake Forest 35-17. 4 touchdowns of over 50 yards in a quarter could be considered problematic by some.

"Right now," Clawson said, "we are a really poor tackling team against good people."

- Miami lost(what word is worse than lost?) 58-0 to Clemson (Week 10, 11/7). Dabo dance? Dabo dance. Al Golden is out and SotU has his eulogy.

- Georgia Tech took advantage of FSU's red zone issues and hit a few big plays late to beat the Noles 22-16. Oh, that's the what that feels like.

- Syracuse (Week 9, 10/31) played Pitt tough but lost on a last second field goal 23-20. The Panther's final drive lasted 19 plays and included a fake punt.

- Chattanooga (Week 12, 11/21) upended Wofford 20-17.

- Florida (Week 13, 11/28) had a bye

Record of Opponents: 49-37
