What was a tumultuous September has seen a bounce back in October with wins over Syracuse, North Carolina and UMass. The Seminoles scored on eight of their 10 drives and matched a season high in points for a game this season with 38 in the first half alone. Can you still show up and go get the job done?вЂќДЇlorida State got the job done, wasting little time putting away UMass. вЂњItвЂ™s been a while since weвЂ™ve been able to showcase that identity that weвЂ™re capable of, even when people expect you to do that. вЂњToday we did what we needed to do - we went out and we were dominant in a football game,вЂќ Florida State coach Mike Norvell said. Bell was Florida StateвЂ™s offensive coordinator in 2018 before leaving to become the UMass head coach.ДЇlorida State won its ninth straight homecoming game and scored its most points against an FBS opponent since the Seminoles knocked off Texas State 59-16 in Sept. UMass managed just 241 yards in Walt BellвЂ™s return to Tallahassee. The Seminoles have six 200-yard rushing games, the first time they have done that in their first seven games of a season since 1995.ДЇlorida State is the first team in the 69-year history of the ACC to start 0-4 and win its next three games. It's just the fifth time Florida State has run for at least 365 yards since 2000. Jarvis Brownlee had a 70-yard interception return for a touchdown, and Jammie Robinson had an interception in the end zone.Д¬ameron Carson made a 45-yard field-goal attempt for UMass (1-6) after Florida State fumbled the game-opening kickoff.Д®llis Merriweather was held to 1 rushing yard on 10 carries but had four receptions for 65 yards for UMass.ДЇlorida State ran for 365 yards, the most since a 478-yard outburst at South Florida in 2016. The Seminoles also grabbed two interceptions. ItвЂ™s a bunch of guys that love each other. ItвЂ™s a team game and weвЂ™re a team for once. Guys like seeing other guys making plays. вЂњIt just shows what type of team weвЂ™re becoming,вЂќ Travis said. Florida StateвЂ™s starters erupted in celebration on the sideline. With mostly backups in the game, redshirt freshman quarterback Chubba Purdy completed touchdown passes to Camren McDonald in the third quarter and Jordan Young in the fourth quarter. Travis ran for 78 yards on nine carries despite playing just a drive after halftime.ДЇlorida State ran for a season-high 365 yards, the sixth time this season the Seminoles have surpassed the 200-yard mark on the ground. The Seminoles (3-4) have won three straight games for the first time since the end of the 2017 season.Д¬orbin ran for 127 yards on 11 carries, his fourth 100-yard rushing game this season. Williams and Lawrance Toafili each had touchdown runs as Florida State routed UMass 59-3 on Saturday.

Jordan Travis, Jashaun Corbin, Treshaun Ward, D.J. (AP) - Florida State has rarely been in this position - building a big lead against an FBS opponent and going deep into the bench in the fourth quarter with a game well in hand.
