Florida State falls to 4-5 after third straight loss to Miami

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- If Florida State has made any progress this season, it was hard to see in a 27-10 loss to rival Miami on Saturday.

The loss dropped Florida State to 4-5, and they have to win two games against Boston College, Alabama State and Florida just to get to bowl eligibility. That's one season removed from failing to qualify for a bowl for the first time since 1981.

After the loss, there are sure to be more questions about whether being bowl eligible will be enough for coach Willie Taggart to make it to Year 3.
