Live scores, highlights and updates from the Pittsburgh vs. Florida State football game
Florida State will be playing the full four quarters on Saturday, but they're expected to have things wrapped up well before that. They will head out on the road to face off against the Pittsburgh Panthers at 3:30 p.m. ET at Acrisure Stadium. Florida State is currently enjoying a perfect season and no doubt want to keep things rolling.
Florida State put the finishing touches on their fifth blowout victory of the season on Saturday. Everything went their way against Wake Forest as Florida State made off with a 41-16 victory. With Florida State ahead 34-7 at the half, the matchup was all but over already.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Florida State to victory, but perhaps none more so than Jordan Travis, who threw for 359 yards and three touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. Trey Benson also deserves a shout-out for his two touchdowns.
The team's defense also helped out by holding Wake Forest to a paltry 210 yards. A big part of that defensive dominance came down to Florida State's ability to keep the quarterback under pressure: the team laid him out five times before it was all said and done. Wake Forest's QB won't forget Jared Verse anytime soon given Verse sacked him five times.
Meanwhile, Pittsburgh gave up the first points and the most points on Saturday. It's going to take some time for them to recover from the 58-7 bruising that Notre Dame dished out on Saturday. Pittsburgh was down 44-0 at the end of the third quarter, and things only got worse from there.
Florida State's win was their fifth straight on the road (dating back to last season), which bumped their overall record up to 8-0. As for Pittsburgh, they have fallen quite a ways from their 8-4 record last season and are now at 2-6.
As mentioned, Florida State shouldn't be too worried about this matchup, as the experts have them favored by 21.5 points. Those brave souls putting their money on Pittsburgh against the spread have faith in an upset since their 0-4 ATS can't hold a candle to Florida State's 6-2.
