Florida State, after outlasting an upset bid by the Pitt Panthers, is 9-0 (6-0 ACC) and headed to the ACC Championship game.
It wasn’t a particularly pretty win for the Seminoles, who led Pitt just 10-7 at halftime, but a stout defensive performance and timely explosive plays on offense helped separate the score in the end as FSU secured a 24-7 victory.
Florida State was without star receivers Keon Coleman and Johnny Wilson and the effect was apparent on the Seminoles’ offense, with the team’s 14-game streak of scoring 30-plus points coming to an end (though quarterback Jordan Travis still put up 360 yards on the day).
