VIDEO: Mike Norvell speaks after Thursday’s practice

“Thought it was a good day today. Continued to work situations preparing for Sunday night. I thought our guys hopped around with a good spirit and purpose,” said Mike Norvell after Florida State football’s second practice of game week. The Seminoles’ head coach met with the media after Thursday’s practice to talk final preparation for Notre Dame.

He said, “In game one, you really don’t know to expect. Especially offensively facing a new coordinator and personnel... The challenge for us is to make sure we execute and that we perform to the best of our ability and then we’re going to have to adapt and adjust.”

The ‘Noles are yet to announce their starting quarterback with three days till game one. Norvell doesn’t plan to reveal that till kickoff against the Irish. “We’re going to continue to go through the process. It will be revealed who runs out there on the field at 7:44 on Sunday night. We’re excited about the quarterback room and the opportunity that’s ahead of us. Those guys have competed really well,” said Norvell.

For the third straight day, Norvell emphasized his excitement for the game day atmosphere in Tallahassee. “All eyes will be on Tallahassee. All eyes will be on what goes on in there in Doak Campbell Stadium. We’re excited for what it is, the opportunity that we have, and to get to go play the game.”
