"Maybe the Seminoles need to take a look at their strength and conditioning program, or strength coaching staff. They continue to get players sustaining serious injuries, and it's not like this has been a one-year anamoly."

"If the damage is greater within ACC play during the second half, and Florida wins the regular-season finale between the archrivals, change must come in some shape or form for FSU football.

Steve Ellis-Tallahassee Democrat

"The program is learning humility one week at a time. Saturday, it meant facing Duke unranked; this week, humility means hosting a ranked ACC opponent while still unranked."

Florida Times Union

"Help wanted: Linebackers. Need quick learners for urgent openings on a unit recognized annually among the nation's best. . . . OK, NCAA bylaws must contain a rule somewhere barring coaches from openly seeking résumés in midseason. But no one could fault Bobby Bowden if the thought fleetingly crossed his mind."
