QB BROCK GLENN

Florida State's coaching staff had to insert redshirt freshman quarterback Brock Glenn into the Clemson game as veteran DJ Uiagalelei broke a finger on his throwing hand.

Glenn performed admirably versus Clemson (the best defense that he will likely play all season) where he completed 23 of his 41 pass attempts for 228 yards and two tocuhdowns with only one interception.

However, the former four-star prospect is still young and is prone to making mistakes. The season has been a disaster for the Seminoles where the youth movement is now in full effect. This makes me wonder if we see true freshman option Luke Kromenhoek in the game since Norvell has mentioned him in media sessions.

Duke has a very aggressive defensive unit. It makes matter worse when head football coach Manny Diaz is a defensive-minded coach. Glenn will have to ensure that does not have any castatrophic turnovers to have a chance to win the football game. It is a question mark to see how he will respond in a road environment.
