FSU vs. NC State: A Must-Win for Bowl Hopes
22 Nov
Summary
- Florida State aims to end a nine-game road losing streak.
- Both FSU and NC State need one more win for bowl eligibility.
- Key offensive players include FSU's Tommy Castellanos and Duce Robinson.
Florida State football faces a critical road test against NC State as they aim to break a nine-game losing streak away from home. The Seminoles' offense, which impressed last week with a strong rushing attack and key contributions from quarterback Tommy Castellanos and receiver Duce Robinson, needs to perform consistently on the road.
Both Florida State and NC State stand at 5-5, making this game pivotal for securing bowl eligibility. The Wolfpack also enter the contest after a significant loss and are seeking to improve their standing. Historical data shows FSU has struggled in Raleigh, not winning there since 2016.
Analysts offer mixed predictions, with some favoring NC State due to FSU's road struggles, while others believe Florida State's offensive capabilities, particularly Castellanos' dual-threat ability and the defense's recent form, give them an edge. The outcome could significantly impact the teams' season trajectories and coaching situations.
