FSU football coach Willie Taggart announced James Blackman as the starter for the Clemson game last week. He didn’t hesitate when making the announcement, but also said Alex Hornibrook would play in the game.
Both things came to fruition but both players left a lot to be desired from their performances.
Blackman was injured early in the second half of the Louisville game and sat out the NC State game while getting a whole bye week to get fully healthy.
His performance was awful, completing just nine of 23 passes for 66 yards and two interceptions.
