Warchant TV: Mike Norvell, Florida State coordinators reflect on Duke win, look ahead to Wake Forest
After rallying for a 38-20 victory against No. 16 Duke, the Florida State football team sits atop the ACC with momentum heading into a road contest Saturday vs. Wake Forest.
“I’m glad to be able to say it each Monday but I love the approach and the urgency from our guys,” Norvell said. “Last night’s practice, they came in and they went to work; they are battling to get better.”
Despite the Demon Deacons’ first conference win coming with third-string QB Santino Marucci at the controls, Norvell said they will prepare for an attack led by starter Mitch Griffis.
Norvell also addressed the defensive surge in the second half and his game management in fourth-down situations, as well as the increased workload of Destyn Hill and encouraging news in regards to Johnny Wilson.
