One week after losing an overtime thriller at home to Notre Dame, a rough start to the season for Florida State turned dismal.
Playing against FCS school Jacksonville State—a team that lost to UAB 31-0 last week—the Seminoles gave up a 59-yard Hail Mary touchdown as time expired to lose, 20-17. The play was stunning on a number of levels, but watching two defensive backs let a JSU receiver make a clean catch and then fail to attempt a tackle had Doak Campbell Stadium absolutely stunned.

It's the first time Florida State has lost to a non-FBS team since William & Mary defeated the Seminoles in 1959.
