Physicality

This is something I’ve waited to see for what seems like forever with a FSU football team. We finally saw the Noles be more physical than their opponents in their last outing against NC State.

I’m not talking about dirty plays or trying to injure someone like No. 11 from NC State was doing against the Noles.

Simply, whipping the man in front of you and laying the wood on opposing players when the opportunity presents itself.

There were several clean hits the Noles dished out against NC State where I thought I was hallucinating.  I mean, the hit Levonta Taylor had early in the game where he stood up a runner stood out.

Cyrus Fagan made some NC State player turn into a helicopter rotor from a hit. Cory Durden and Janarius Robinson crushed NC State QB Bailey Hockman a couple of times.

It was a welcome sight to finally see the FSU football team play with some confidence, passion and dare I saw swagger?

I need to see this on Saturday on the road against the team that embarrassed the Noles last year.
