The Florida State Seminoles were able to pull through again. This time the Seminoles rallied from being down 16 points. For the fifth time this season, the Seminoles trailed at halftime and again halftime adjustments were key in the Seminoles comeback.

This comeback meant a little more this time around as they were able to beat their in-state rivals, the Miami Hurricanes; extending the winning streak to five against Miami and their overall streak to 26 straight games.

Four points ended up being the difference in the game as Florida State won 30-26. Miami had four crucial points taken from them. Miami had an extra point blocked and also missed a 29 yard field goal.

While missed opportunities hurt Miami, luck was on Florida State’s side when a 3rd and goal pass was tipped and fell right into the arms of running back Karlos Williams, who ran it in for a 11 yard touchdown reception.

Florida State clinched the ACC’s Atlantic Division after a Clemson loss earlier in the season.

Florida State’s last two games remaining on their schedule are against Boston College and Florida, both games being played in Tallahassee.
