Florida State coach: ‘I failed’ in team’s stunning loss to BC

With Florida State’s 2024 football season in danger of becoming a complete disaster after only two games, coach Mike Norvell knows he need to find answers quickly.

‘I’m sick to how this season started. Tonight, I failed in preparing the team to go out and respond,’ Norvell said after Monday night’s 28-13 loss to Boston College that dropped the defending ACC champions to 0-2, with both losses coming to conference opponents.

‘You’ve got a football team that nobody envisioned ever being where we are and having disappointment, having failure, but I do believe in what this team can do,’ Norvell said. 

Not much has gone right for the Seminoles so far this season.

New quarterback DJ Uiagalelei has struggled to get going and even had fans calling for his benching during Monday’s loss to BC. And on defense, the Seminoles gave up 263 yards and a pair of touchdowns on the ground, with former FSU running back Treshaun Ward recording 138 total yards and a receiving score.

It was all too reminiscent of how Georgia Tech had its way with FSU in the season opener.

‘There’s going to be plenty of negativity around this program. I understand that,’ Norvell said. ‘When we perform the way we just did, that’s all part of it. But for our football team, you’ve got to stay together, and you’ve got to make sure that you’re there for each other. We’ve been knocked down. We know how to get up, but we’ve got to go do that.’
