    What They Are Saying About FSU Win Over Duke

    " The Duke team that FSU manhandled 51-24 this afternoon is in many ways a mirror image of the Rice team FSU routed three Saturdays ago (55-7).

    Both teams were winless and picked by the oddsmakers to lose by more than three touchdowns to once mighty FSU. And against both, FSU did what it was supposed to do: win big (and cover)."

    "The Seminoles successfully bounced back from their 24-20 loss at North Carolina State nine days earlier which knocked them from the national rankings.

    Florida State entered the Duke game after a loss for the third straight season, and once again the Seminoles took out their frustrations on the hapless Blue Devils, this time gaining 478 total yards."

    "All Florida State needed to regain its offensive swagger was a game against the one opponent it always beats.

    The Seminoles relied on their passing game to extend their dominance over Duke, with Drew Weatherford throwing three of his four touchdown passes to Greg Carr in the 51-24 rout on Saturday.

    "It's a good thing we could throw and catch today, or we probably would have been in problems," coach Bobby Bowden said."
