The Florida State Seminoles dropped their first game of the season last Saturday The offensive line had its struggles against Wake Forest, but will not have long to take a breath and regroup as tomorrow night they travel to Raleigh in a tough atmosphere. Against North Carolina State, the offensive line will look to bounce back. Before we get too far ahead of ourselves though, let’s take a moment and see how the big guys up front did against the Demon Deacons. Once again, Darius Washington filled in at left tackle for the injured Robert Scott.
After each week, Tomahawk Nation will take a peek at FSU’s PFF grades along the line, offering some insight into the numbers and performances.

Florida State offensive line performance takeaways with @Ricobert11
- PFF is not a perfect scoring system. The graders cannot be 100% of the assignments on each play.
- PFF CFB Scale: 90-100 Elite, 85-89 All-Conference, 70-84 Starter, 60-69 Backup, <60 replaceable
- Dillan Gibbons is steady-eddy. Most consistent offensive lineman to date.
- FSU’s offensive tackles were the two worst performing lineman last week. You cannot win many match-ups when you get sub-par performances from your book-ends.
- Turnetine put in a good game, numbers-wise. But believe he was helped out a good bit (running back chip, tight end over).
- FSU is in a position where a hobbled Robert Scott may be the better start over Washington or Turnetine... not great.
