TALLAHASSEE – Florida State came up short in the season opener against Virginia Tech last night, 24-3.

This isn’t the start FSU wanted for the Willie Taggart era. They came out slow in the first quarter and were down 10-0 from a Josh Jackson touchdown pass and a field goal. Thankfully FSU got a field goal later in the 2nd quarter to come within a touchdown.

Virginia Tech pulled away with a blocked punt for a touchdown to take the lead 17-3. Penalties and turnovers ultimately kept FSU from keeping it close and probably even winning the game.

Virginia Tech sealed the game with a late 4th quarter touchdown to win 24-3.

The Seminoles hope to get a 1 in the win column this Saturday as they host the Samford Bulldogs.
