Blue bloods are pitted against one another when No. 5 LSU takes on No. 8 Florida State under the scorching Orlando sun.
Sundays are for football, one way or another. And this clash of top-10 sides should be box office quality, especially if Jayden Daniels has anything to say about it.
The true sophomore enjoyed a stellar first year on the Bayou, tossing 17 touchdowns to just three interceptions. A true dual-threat QB, Daniels added 11 scores on the ground, all the while leaving countless defenders gasping for air after mazy treks down the sideline.
The Tigers star has all the makings of an elite college quarterback. And with a year in Brian Kelly’s system, Daniels and Co. have fans dreaming of everything that glitters.
He’ll have a formidable foe in an FSU defense that dripping with the verve of a top-tier unit. Jared Verse is back, one year removed from a nine-sack campaign that thrust him into the conversation for ACC’s best defender. He should prove a daunting foe for Daniels, a pair of titans jostling into one another in their glistening armor.
Florida State enjoyed a standout third year under Mike Norvell’s helm, doubling its win total from the year before. Now comes the hard part: maintaining that level of performance year-after-year. In LSU, Norvell and Co. have a model for the sort of consistency they are craving.
