Every week we break down the result of the previous game. Who really played well for the Seminoles against Maryland? Read to find out. FSU played at a high level in the first quarter, despite holding only a 7-0 lead. The high level of play would continue in later quarters, and the points would come.
Note: there are certain schematic and tendency things we do not discuss in these reviews out of respect for our sources, the school and coaching staff.
The entire fourth quarter was garbage time.

O'Leary pulls the safety just enough with a post and KB comes in behind him witha seam route.KB is able to get inside the CB and Winston throws an absolute laser before KB is out of his break. Beautiful. |

1-10 | at Umd25 | 4-2-5 | Reid rush over left end for 2 yards to the UMD27 (LAWRENCESTAMPLE;SMITH, K.), clock 14:40. | Hicks holds his leverage and forces the RB to cut it inside (great discipline). Nile beats his man and scrapes down the line and swallows the RB on the cutback. Keelin comes down from the safety position to assist. Great defense. |
2-8 | at Umd27 | 3-3-5 | Rowe MR pass incomplete to K.Goins, dropped pass, clock 14:23. | Waggle. Casher does his job and follows the RB to the flats before releasing to the QB once he gets out of the pocket. Terrance is slow to get over to the flats. Would have went for 10 yards if the RB wasnt imcompetent. |
3-8 | at Umd27 | 4-2-5 | Rowe rush QX for 4 yards to the UMD31 (ANDREWS, N.;WHITE, M.), clock 13:58. | Andrews comes in to play Nickle. Marquez White playing CB (interesting, wonder if he has moved back).Walker absolutely mandhandles the tackle but once again comes in too out of control and misses the sack. Casher is there waiting but gets juked by Rowe (c'mon man!).Marquez White does a great job of fighting off his block on the scramble and laying a big hit on Rowe, Andrews comes in to provide the exclamation point and clean it up. Really good defense, wish Walker would stop trying to lay a kill shot and break down, he would have 4 or 5 sacks by now. |
4-4 | at Umd31 | Renfro punt 43 yards to the FS26, WILSON, J. return 8 yards to the FS34 (Robinson). | Good punt, Wilson makes the first guy miss and gets positive yardage. He's going to break some next year. | |

1-10 | at Fs34 | COKER, J. at QB for Florida State. | ||
1-10 | at Fs34 | 11 Gun | COKER, J. sideline pass complete to JONES, I. for 16 yards to the 50 yardline, 1ST DOWN FS, out-of-bounds (Goree), clock 13:23. | Option route for Isiah Jones. UMD Corner is 10 yards off and bailing, Jones curls up and Jacob puts the ball right on his chest. Broxie makes a nice peel back block and Jones breaks 3 tackles before being forced out of bounds. This Jones kid is going to be really good. Powerful for a guy that needs to put on 15 lbs. |
1-10 | at Fs50 | 11 gun | COKER, J. ML pass complete to BROXSIE, S. for 7 yards to the UMD43 (Farrand), clock 12:42. | Same play to opposite side. UMD Linebacker is late to get over to Broxie and Shane curls up for an easy throw and catch. Good to see the Broxie kid get his first catch. |
2-3 | at Umd43 | 11 gun | COKER, J. slant pass incomplete to JONES, I., clock 12:27. | 11 gun. Coker reads slant to Jones. Ball is tipped at the line of scrimmage and falls incomplete. Coker had time, wouldn't have minded seeing him hold onto it a tad longer and given a look down field. |
3-3 | at Umd43 | 11 gun | COKER, J. screen pass complete to WILLIAMS, K. for 15 yards to the UMD28, 1ST DOWN FS, out-of-bounds (Likely), clock 12:21. | Decent pass blocking by the 2nd team OL. Will be nice to get Wilson Bell back because Krug is pass blocking in wet concrete. Williams sneaks out to the flat and Coker does a nice job of rolling through his progressions and finding Los wide open.Los shows nice hands and turns it up field for the big gain. We're going to see Los on a wheel route in the near future. |
1-10 | at Umd28 | 10 gun | WILLIAMS, K. rush up middle for 11 yards to the UMD17, 1ST DOWN FS (Twine), clock 11:56. | ZR. Lovelady does a nice job of sealing the NG, Carter gets to the second level and blocks the LB and Wallace does on nice job on the OLB. Los sees the hole and bursts through it. Los shows great vision to read the cutback lane. Kid looks so special. |
1-10 | at Umd17 | 10 gun | COKER, J. sideline pass incomplete to GHOLSTON, R., clock 11:33. | Walk on OG allows pressure up the gut. Coker doesnt show the greatest pocket awareness, Could have tucked it and ran fo big yards. Instead, he thorws it away. No harm. |
2-10 | at Umd17 | 10 gun | WILLIAMS, K. rush over left guard for 17 yards to the UMD0, 1ST DOWN FS, TOUCHDOWN, clock 11:28. | ZR again. Lovelady once again does a nice job sealing the nose, and reuben gets to the second level to block the LB. Los just bursts through the hole and is to the goal line before you can blink. Good lord, he's going to do some things. |

1-10 | at Umd16 | 4-2-5 | Reid rush over left guard for loss of 2 yards to the UMD14 (HICKS, D.), clock 11:07. | IZ. Hollin gets double teamed and Hicks absolutely whips the OT and gets the tackle for loss. He's so much better with his hand in the ground. |

1-10 | at Umd24 | COKER, J. rush right for 24 yards to the UMD0, 1ST DOWN FS, TOUCHDOWN, clock 09:49. | ZR. In the previous drives Coker was handing the ball to Los even though the End was crashing hard. I'm sure on the sidelines there was a discussion with Coker. The entire defense follows Los on the give like frat boys chasing DG's at happy hour. Coker keeps and could have high stepped to the end zone. | |
