Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher confirmed Monday that quarterback Sean Maguire would get the start against Chattanooga over Everett Golson.
“(Maguire) will start this week,” Fisher told Warchant Radio, via Sam Cooper of Yahoo Sports. “Yes, he will.”
Maguire replaced Golson on Saturday against NC State after the Notre Dame transfer struggled, turning the ball over three times. Maguire took over and threw for 231 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, erasing a 10-point deficit and leading the Seminoles to a 34-17 win.
Golson was the team's starter for the first seven games of the season but missed two contests after suffering a concussion and showed rust against NC State.
