The success of Florida State has long been credited to the team’s offense, but this year it is a different story. The defense is what is leading this team to victories. The team has surrendered 37 points in five games, which is 7.4 points per game. The defense will get a test this week against number two ranked Miami at home…Four top 25 teams fell again last week to unranked schools. Arizona State (24), Iowa (9), Missouri (23), and USC (3) all faltered, two of them in overtime. Florida (25), Arkansas (14), Northern Illinois (22), Tennessee (8), and TCU (17) all had to make fourth quarter comebacks just to win their respective game.

After a grabbing seven catches for 135 yards and three touchdowns against one the toughest defenses in the nation, Texas A&M, Fitzgerald now has 32 receptions for 783 yards and nine touchdowns…Two weeks ago, I said how B.J Symons was going to make Texas Tech fans forget all about Kliff Kingsbury, well it has officially happened. Symons passed for an obscene 661 yards against Ole Miss along with tossing six touchdowns. He is now on pace for 48 touchdown passes and 5,883 passing yards, Kliff who…
