The Florida State Seminoles football team started 0-4 but then won five of their next seven games. On Saturday they fell short of making it six of their last eight, falling to the Florida Gators 24-21. FSU has failed to make a bowl game in three of their last four seasons, but despite the 5-7 finish this is still a successful season for FSU, even if this game will leave a bitter taste in the mouth for a long time.
After a week of speculation about his status due to a potential ankle injury in practice, quarterback Emory Jones got the starting nod.
