How Florida State Can Beat Miami: 5 Keys to Victory

5. Play a Clean Game

The Florida State Seminoles are clearly better team. Miami is 106th in turnover margin and struggles to take care of the ball. If Florida State can play a clean game, they should be in great shape to reach 10-0.

2. Stand Up To The Run

The Miami Hurricanes are 22nd in the country in rushing yards per attempt, averaging five yards per carry. FSU is not particularly strong against the run, surrendering four yards per carry (58th in the country). Miami backs Henry Parrish, Donald Chaney and Mark Fletcher will get a lot of work and the Seminoles will need to keep the damage to a minimum.

3. Protect Jordan Travis

If the Seminoles give Jordan Travis time and a clean pocket, he will be able to pick apart this Hurricanes secondary. Miami is 62nd in the country in passing yards allowed. Travis could be in line for a huge day.

4. Get Coleman and Wilson Healthy

Star wide receivers Keon Coleman and Johnny Wilson missed the Seminoles last game. The duo has combined for nearly 1,000 yards and 11 touchdowns. Head coach Mike Norvell said the receivers were "in a much better spot" this week so it's possible they both play.
