Florida State shot 39 of 70 (56%) from the field and made 13 of 30 buckets (43%) from beyond the arc.
Nick Woodard scored 16 points on 7-of-10 shooting to lead Alcorn State. Tycen McDaniels added 14 points and Davian Williams had 13. The trio each had a team-high six rebounds.

Jake Morton also made his coaching debut with Alcorn State. Morton was on the FSU coaching staff last year.
