FSU defense was better against Wake Forest, but was it fool's gold?

One of the biggest criticisms of this Florida State football team during its four-game losing streak was the defense’s inability to get stops in general or when it really mattered.

We wrote about how Wake Forest wasn’t great on offense. Their quarterbacks were not the most accurate, but that didn’t seem to matter when FSU played Stanford two weeks ago.

That’s why most FSU fans were likely shocked when FSU was less than eight minutes away from pitching a shutout against Wake Forest on Saturday night.

We’ll give credit to the FSU defense. It’s the best effort they’ve given in weeks, and they turned it on once the FSU offense finally started scoring points when they got stops.
