Overview
- Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. ET at Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee with television coverage on the ACC Network.
- Florida State is a 13.5-point favorite; the Seminoles are 4-5 needing two wins for a bowl, while Virginia Tech is 3-6 and must win out.
- FSU’s Week 12 report lists WR Jayvan Boggs probable, RB Samuel Singleton Jr. questionable and DB Ja’Bril Rawls out; Virginia Tech has multiple contributors ruled out and others questionable.
- The Seminoles’ offense has cooled, posting a season-low 360 yards and 10 points at Clemson with Tommy Castellanos sacked six times, though WR Duce Robinson enters with 43 catches for 813 yards and four touchdowns.
- Virginia Tech is 3-3 under interim Philip Montgomery after Brent Pry’s firing, and reports indicate the Hokies are pursuing James Franklin, while QB Kyron Drones and the run game remain central to their approach.
