Florida State vs. Miami: Defensive recap, breakdown, analysis

The Florida State Seminoles defense stood tough against the Miami Hurricanes on Saturday night, holding rising signal caller Tyler Van Dyke and the ‘Canes to under 30 points. The ’Noles defense was led by who else but stud edge rusher Jermaine Johnson. Johnson terrorized Van Dyke all night, finishing with a final stat line of seven tackles, including five for a loss with three sacks and one forced fumble.

Johnson’s motor is also incredible and he’s led by example on the field this season. That kind of leadership has been invaluable to a rebuilding program trying to re-establish championship standards and Johnson is quickly entering Seminole legend territory.
