Defensive observations from FSU’s big road win vs. Boston College
Photo by Omar Rawlings/Getty ImagesNever a doubt, right? Florida State took care of business today, heading up to Beantown and winning 38-31 in an emotionally charged environment vs. Boston College on Red Bandana day in Chestnut Hill. The Seminoles’ big plays on offense will dominate the highlights, but the defense did enough to get the result FSU needed.
But it didn’t look like that’d be the case early on. In 40-degree New England weather, the ’Noles — especially several secondary players — didn’t look too interested in playing physical football. Anyone can stick his shoulder in there; that’s the easy part. Wrapping and taking a guy to the turf is what can really smart in chilly temps.
