Noles Focus On Colorado Mistakes Before Turning To Canes

FSU Sports Information Excerpts:

Coming off a big win over a previously undefeated Colorado squad, the Seminole football team (3-1, 0-1) spent 10 periods correcting mistakes from the squad’s 39-21 win on Monday night. While it is hard not to look ahead to next week’s rivalry game with the University of Miami, FSU had other business to take care of before they could get set for the 53rd meeting between the schools. Those preparations for UM will have to wait until Tuesday.

Head Coach Bobby Bowden:
On a reduction in mistakes against Colorado, and the need to continue to clean them up in practice:
“We eliminated a lot of them, and you could tell a dog gone difference. But, we still got entirely too many penalties, missed assignments and other things like that. You look around the nation at all of these teams that are getting upset, it's because somebody makes a mistake at the wrong time and it costs you a ball game.”

On whether the mistakes are mental or physical:
“Mental. Nobody can play a game without making at least a mental error. Go the wrong way or line up wrong or do something like that. If you make too many of them, boy it can sure cost you a ball game.”
