Sluggish start turns into fiery finish during FSU’s first open practice of Memphis week: “We’ve got to build on that”

For the first time this season Florida State practiced on a regular schedule in anticipation of a gameday, something that Mike Norvell stated he was “very grateful” for at yesterday’s press conference.

With that in mind, the Seminoles needed to fly off the blocks on Tuesday as they prep to take on the Memphis Tigers.

Instead, they started sluggishly.

Maybe this is a big deal, maybe it isn’t, but the race with the defensive lineman against Norvell down the field was the laziest of the 2024 season. Then, during the first 11-on-11 period, the offense looked out of sorts as neither DJ Uiagalelei nor Brock Glenn moved the ball down the field.
