The Seminoles (1-7, 1-6) continued their massive struggle as Brock Glenn and Luke Kromenhoek could not get much going and the offense was brutally struggling.

The Seminoles looked absolutely abysmal as they had 11 points and 10 total first downs. The team went 2-of-10 on third downs and 1-of-2 on fourth down attempts. Coach Mike Norvell’s team would have 201 total yards (159 passing, 42 rushing). The offense had a pair of lost fumbles and only ran the ball for 1.5 yards per attempt. The quarterbacks could not throw the ball at all and that is absolutely terrible for the reigning ACC Champions.
