Boston College 2012

EJ Manuel put up some monster stats in this game against Boston College. The Noles got on the board early in the first quarter on a 77 yard bomb from Manuel to Kenny Shaw.

They scored early and often giving FSU football a commanding 31-7 lead at the half.

Manuel finished the game 27 of 34 for 439 yards with four touchdowns and two interceptions. Most importantly, this game came the week after the devastating 17-16 loss on the road against NC State.

It was like Jimbo Fisher and the team were taking out their frustrations from the loss on a really bad Boston College team.
