Tallahassee, Fla. – New Quarterback Tommy Castalonos Leaded a punished attack for Florida State Stunned number 8 shocked as seminols as 78 yards and a touchdown Alabama 31-17 On Saturday, Krimson Tide’s streak of 23 direct victory in the season’s openers ended the line.
Exiting the 2–10 season, the Florida State crushed Alabama a crush, which was seen as a contenders for the college football playoff under the second year coach Kalen Debair.
Castellanos, from a transfer Boston collegeThe great Alabama coach Nick Saban made headlines in summer, in his week 1 matchup, the Tide vs. Florida did not “save” the state and the signal-collar “saw them stopping me.”
He supported the jab, leaving the FSU’s leading ground attack while being skilled through the wind, finished with 16 carry, while someone else had no more than seven running attempts for seminels and completed 9 out of 14 passes for 152 yards.
“This is a reason why I came here, for such moments, for days,” Castellanos said after the game. “We got a long season ahead. Just take it in a week in a week, keep grinding.”
Students and fans tilted the ground at the Dock Campbell Stadium to be disturbed by seminels, which closed as 13 and-point underdogs in ESPN Bet.
Under the new aggressive coordinator Gas Malzhan, who spent eight seasons Golden brown colorHead coach, Florida State was physical from the beginning, ended with 230 running yards and an average of 4.7 yards per carry. Nolles covered a distance of just 89.9 yards during its devastating 2024 season.
“We are training for this since January,” FSU lineback Justin Crude Said. “What happened in that game was not surprised to anyone in that room. Perhaps for Y’All. But we are not.
“We are not sending a message to the world of college football. We are not trying to make a big announcement. It is about improvement in the day and how we want to be better and keep moving forward.”
Jowar had not demolished the season opener since losing 20-17 UCLA In 2001, under Dennis Frenchyon, and it will pressurize the debur from the loyalty from Tuskalosa, which demanded defeat. Saban, who was the predecessor of Debor, led Alabama to six national titles.
Deor fell 6-4 against unpublished teams in Alabama; Saban proceeded 124-4 in such sports.
Alabama could not resolve the rescue of the Florida state, ending with 87 running yards on 29 carries. FSU stopped Bama three times in fourth place, coming with 5:39 to go for the last time.
Florida State defeated its first rank opponent since knocking with number 19 Louisville 2023 In the Atlantic Coast Conference Championship Game.
“We wanted to be aggressive,” said seminoles coach Mike Norwell. “And we were. Our players, they got up for the challenge.”
