Football:
After a 1-2 start most FSU fans were ready to stick a fork in the Taggart era but not these third-graders:
These 3rd graders at Buck Lake Elementary in #Tallahassee are your biggest fans @CoachTaggart. The letters they wrote to @FSUFootball really inspired us at WCTV. Maybe they can get on the field before a game or meet you one day! @WCTV pic.twitter.com/cqpCdoKibM

Speaking of Coach Taggart he was very pleased with how his players approached the bye week.
With two returning three-year starters FSU fans did not expect any new names to maintain kicking duties for the Seminoles but things change quickly in college football. Ricky Aguayo got benched & Logan Tyler is no longer with the team after entering the transfer portal following his suspension for violating team rules.
FSU fans shouldn’t be too concerned; Tommy Martin has performed very well in his place.
Finally healthy Carlos Becker is enjoying his best year in Tallahassee yet; it’s been a long road for the Seminole safety. (Subscription)
Trevor Lawrence has not played to the level of his ability so far; will it continue?
FSU is off this weekend so it’s time to root for some chaos a week before separation Saturday.
The last time Auburn traveled to Gainesville this happened. (warning for language & an extremely high-pitched voice)
Recruiting:
When the bye week comes it’s time to hit the recruiting trail and multiple coaches will be on the road this weekend. (VIP) Expect recruits like Jeff Sims, Malachi Wideman, Lawrance Toa’fili to get visits.
I’m starting to sound like a broken record but Morven Joseph has been ridiculous so far.
