The yearly pattern continues.
The Florida State defense, nowhere to be found for stretches of the game, ended up shutting out North Alabama from the second quarter on. It was another strange day for the defense in a season with moments of them. Of course, like the entire season, there are two schools of that with how the defense played. The former believes that Adam Fuller’s group buckled their chin straps, forced three turnovers, and held UNA under four yards a play. The latter asks, why in the world is this unit giving up 8-play 80-yard drives and the Seminoles finding themselves in a two-touchdown hole?
