The No. 13 Florida State Seminoles aren’t headed to the ACC Championship Game or College Football Playoff, but they pushed forth a convincing finish with a 27-2 road win in the season finale over the No. 12 Florida Gators.
Dashing their archrival’s national title hopes was merely a consolation prize, as ESPN showed:

The Gators were on the brink of their first shutout since 1988, but they saved face when defensive end Cece Jefferson forced a fumble and safety halfway through the fourth quarter.
