Florida State released a statement Friday night confirming its football program is bowl eligible despite a report from a Reddit user that alleged otherwise.
According to the statement, which was relayed by the Associated Press' Joe Reedy, FSU's athletic department announced it "has received confirmation from Delaware State that the 90 percent requirement is satisfied for the 2017 season, allowing the victory to be used in determining bowl eligibility."
Florida State's eligibility was initially brought into question because the report on Reddit noted Delaware State had not met the 90 percent scholarship limit that would have allowed FSU's win over the FCS program to count toward qualification for a bowl game.
