The Florida State Seminoles did not fold and quit, as most had predicted and anticipated, as a 20-point underdog against the current No. 1 ranked Miami, before being denied the opportunity to tie the game in double overtime, disappointing many FSU ’fans’ who had wished for their team to get blown out.
But because the officials waited forever to make a call (when Miami had ripped the ball away from Robinson) and deemed it an interception, that’s where the replay center was starting its assessment. And from how things sounded, they never really entertained another outcome despite this being a highly controversial (and critically important) play.
The Seminoles (3-4, 1-3 ACC) had a go-ahead touchdown on fourth down against Miami, and then a holding flag took it off the board. One snap later, a contested ball in the end zone went the Hurricanes’ way, and the Seminoles left Miami Gardens with a loss.
Here’s what people online made of the last two plays.
Anyway, moving on, here is how the snaps were distributed in Saturday’s loss. Heading into the bye week and before the Halloween night matchup when the Clemson Dabo’s visit Tallahassee, do these numbers tell us anything about how the snaps are being distributed? Is there anything else that stands out to you with just 4 ACC games and the Gators remaining on the schedule?
Here’s how the defensive snaps (80 in total) were distributed.
And here’s how the offensive snaps (65 in total, 36 passes and 29 runs) were distributed.
