The Seminoles will face the Eagles after narrowly escaping them last season.
will face off against the Boston College Eagles in Tallahassee, Florida on Labor Day at 7:30 p.m. Eastern. FSU will look to bounce back after its loss to unranked Georgia Tech in Dublin, Ireland, and avoid going 0-2 in conference play for the first time since 2021.
Almost no game plans work if the team in question cannot compete physically. However, the Yellow Jackets dominated on both sides of the ball. Their game plan was to load the box, keep DJ Uiagalelei in a phone booth, and force the Seminoles’ new, untested passing game to beat them downfield. That game plan worked, but mostly because GT was able to execute it physically.
The ’Noles could very well stick to their previous game plan and dominate the line of scrimmage against Boston College. But if FSU finds itself in a similar situation with BC, Mike Norvell will have to diversify his play calling and stop relying on the run when it doesn’t work in order to keep Bill O’Brien and the Eagles guessing.This matchup is obviously the overarching theme of the game of football: A group of men attempting to move another group of men against their will.
However, if you’re an FSU fan, you saw a different-looking team on the football field in Ireland than you saw in 2023. Against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, the Seminoles consistently allowed gaping holes, long runs, and enough time for QB Haynes King to deliver the ball. And that was just on defense.
On offense, the ’Noles had a great first drive which allowed the run game to move at will, but sputtered the following drives. GT forced seven tackles for loss while FSU recorded only three. Looking away from the box score, the eye test was even more telling on TV. On some run plays for GT, there didn’t appear to be a Seminole within 10 yards of a Yellow Jacket running back before they even reached the second level. It was more than blown assignments, it was total physical domination.
