"Florida State must have a better resume than Georgia and Michigan, so why are they at No. 4 with the wins they've had? That whole logic with the resumes seems like it only serves Ohio State but not Florida State."
The No. 1 safety in the country is a Seminole!

Board of Trustees's meeting, here are some new renderings for Doak Campbell renovation project. The Board of Trustees will vote on it at the November 8-9 meeting. Today was an information session.
Ron DeSantis is at FSU Pro Day right now. He’s on the opposite side of the field from the media now by family members.
Currently talking to FSU head coach Mike Norvell
Meet Joe Migas. He's a Ball State alum, but a Notre Dame fan. Migas created the idea for the "Catholics vs. "C" Students" t-shirt after throwing back a few drinks with some friends on a Thursday night. The shirts have been a hot commodity at the Notre Dame vs. Ball State tailgate
#FSU
tight end Jaheim Bell kind of explains it all in this photo.
He’s posing with super fan Jack Henyecz and FSU’s newest, unofficial mascot Garnet.
The goldfish has been at every game this season, home and away.
MORE:
Via @/garnetthegoldfish on Instagram, Garnet's owner, Jack Henyecz, dressed up as Garnet for Halloween and happened to run into Jordan Travis.
Also, an unbelievable costume from @/carolinetschida on Instagram of Jaheim Bell after the Wake Forest game.
The
#FSU
coaching staff was made aware Monday that Omar Graham Jr. was not credited with a sack on this play. What do you think.
Reaction from DC Adam Fuller:
Update on Marching Chiefs fundraising for Ireland effort…
- Now at $161,519, that’s $36,000+ over their original goal of $125,000.

I am extremely excited to announce that following my time at The Republic, I’ll be returning to the Dakotas as a sports reporter with The Devils Lake Journal in Devils Lake, North Dakota.
Wanted to thank some people who've helped me get here!

clinched a birth in the ACC Championship game but I had to ask Braden Fiske about when he was at Western Michigan and how this play decided who’d make the MAC Championship game.
The play was called back and Ball State ended up going to the MAC Championship game.
#FSU
linebacker Tatum Bethune said that the game against Wake Forest last year was "one of his worst". Now having an understanding of Wake's slow mesh offense, he knows he's "got to do better".
So here it is. Tomorrow is my last day

Words can’t describe how grateful I am for this publication, the people I’ve met and the city of Tallahassee.

For the fourth straight season the Seminoles advance to the College Cup, defeating Pitt for a third time this season and have still not given up a goal in this tournament.

@BanksKajuan
(Godby 22') as the second straight Big Bend football player to commit to USC.
Via Instagram,

gives
@Brock1Glenn
a shoutout after the freshman entered the game in the fourth quarter.
Travis left the game in the first quarter after suffering an apparent leg injury and left in an ambulance.
So I think I officially cracked the "Pawnee is Muncie" theory. In the map behind April and Andy you can clearly see Ball State. That domed building is Worthen Arena, the road is McKinley Ave and across form the grassy patch you can see LaFollette.
