2005 Keys to the Game: Florida State

This one should be interesting. Virginia Tech vs Florida State for the ACC
Championship and an automatic BCS bid to the Orange Bowl. And the Hokies are
favored by two touchdowns. I haven�t looked it up, but it has to be a
very, very long time since Florida State was that big of an underdog in a
football game.

But this is a different Florida State team. This started as a very promising
season, but various off field issues, academic suspensions, and several key
injuries eventually caught up with the Seminoles and they stumbled down the
stretch, losing their last three games in convincing fashion.

Yet, here they are � with a chance to salvage their season � the chance
to win the ACC Championship and BCS glory.

The Hokies know what�s at stake as well. They have had their sights set all
season on defending their ACC championship and, with a little help from Georgia
Tech, will have the opportunity to do so. If that isn�t motivation enough,
they have the opportunity to get Frank Beamer his first ever victory in seven
tries against FSU and their legendary coach Bobby Bowden. Despite being heavy
favorites, they will not be overconfident � after all, this is still Florida
State.
