Florida State is on the ropes in the first half against Boston College, getting out to an early 14-0 hole in front of the home crowd. Not much has gone right on the offensive end, even with a field goal getting the Seminoles on the board. DJ Uiagalelei has completed just three of 10 passes for 30 yards thus far.

The fans are not too happy with the Florida State quarterback right now, suggesting head coach Mike Norvell makes a change. Following a third-down incompletion, eventually leading to the field goal, the crowd chanted “We want Brock” in support of backup Brock Glenn.

Douglas Soule of the USA TODAY caught a video of the chants at Doak Campbell Stadium, only to be interrupted when Ryan Fitzgerald‘s field goal went through the uprights. You can check it out below.

Glenn is a second-year player and was a former three-star recruit. He played high school football at Memphis (TN) Lausanne Collegiate School, where he was a three-star prospect. The quarterback was the No. 465 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

The role Glenn currently serves as the backup but he did get action during the 2023 season thanks to the injury situation surrounding Jordan Travis. Extended runs against Louisville and Georgia did not produce the best results, though.

Just 17 of Glenn’s 47 passes were completed for a percentage of 36.2%. Those went for a total of 194 yards and no touchdowns. Two interceptions were thrown, nothing coming against the Bulldogs in the Orange Bowl.

There is more frustration for Florida State fans than just Monday night’s performance from Uiagalelei. In Dublin against Georgia Tech was a rough offensive outing too, only producing 21 points and 291 yards. Most importantly, a loss was put on the Seminoles’ record in a defeat not many saw coming in Week 0.

For now, Norvell has not given in to what the crowd wants. Glenn is not entering the game nor has he even been shown warming up on the sidelines. Florida State is likely to stick with Uiagalelei as the offense desperately needs some kind of spark.
