FSU secures bowl eligibility for first time since 2019

Florida State Seminoles football (6-3, 4-3 ACC) is headed to the postseason for the first time under Mike Norvell.

FSU secured bowl eligibility with a blowout win over rival Miami, dominating the Hurricanes in all three phases on the road inside Hard Rock Stadium.

The Seminoles have games against Syracuse, Louisiana and Florida left on the schedule — the Orange and Ragin’ Cajuns both lost today (to Pitt and Troy, respectively) while the Gators beat a flu-depleted Texas A&M squad.
