From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
MIAMI, FL - Frank Gore's 18-yard touchdown run in overtime gave No. 5 Miami a 16-10 victory over No. 4 Florida State on Friday night.
The Hurricanes, playing their first game as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference, extended their winning streak over the Seminoles to six games.
"Are all the games like this in the ACC?" Miami coach Larry Coker said. "I may not like this league."
The Hurricanes, who used to be in the Big East, won this one with defense.
The Seminoles' offense did little during regulation and even less in overtime. After a holding call put Florida State in a first-and-20, Antrel Rolle sniffed out a screen pass for an 8-yard loss.
Chris Rix connected with Craphonso Thorpe for a 15-yard gain on second down, but Rix fumbled on third down and Miami's Thomas Carroll recovered.
Gore scored on Miami's second play.
"We never got tired; we were hungry all the way to the end," Coker said. "It's a monumental experience, a game you'll remember for the rest of your life. It was just a great finish, a great
finish."
The game was originally scheduled to be played last Monday but was postponed four days because of Hurricane Frances. A grandson and a former son-in-law of Florida State coach Bobby Bowden were killed
last Sunday when their car was hit a by a utility truck that was helping to restore power outages caused by the hurricane.
Miami (1-0) scored 16 straight points in the fourth quarter and overtime after Florida State (0-1) took a 10-0 lead by capitalizing on two turnovers.
The Hurricanes also got some help from a missed field goal - something that has defined this rivalry.
Florida State's Xavier Beitia had a 34-yarder blocked with 3:58 to play. The kick would have sealed a victory for the Seminoles. Instead, it gave Miami the ball back with a chance to tie the game.
"We had our chance to put them away and we didn't," Bowden said. "They had a chance to put us away and they did."
Brock Berlin drove the Hurricanes 80 yards in five plays and 52 seconds. He connected with Sinorice Moss for a 30-yard touchdown with 30 seconds to play, and the extra point tied the game at 10.
After Miami tied the game, the Seminoles took a few shots deep, but the game went to overtime.
It was the third meeting in less than 11 months for the in-state rivals.
Rix threw two interceptions and fumbled twice, including the crucial one in overtime. He finished 12-of-28 for 108 yards - and Bowden hinted that he might make a change.
"It wasn't good, it wasn't the performance I expected," Bowden said of Rix. "But you don't want to blame it on one guy. It's going to fall on the responsibility of the coaching staff to do the right
thing in regards to his play tonight."
Florida State couldn't run the ball, either, gaining just 57 yards - the lowest in the series since 1994.
The Hurricanes had plenty of chances to win this one in regulation.
Following Rix's second interception, Berlin hooked up with Moss for a 63-yard gain early in the fourth quarter. Then Berlin connected with Greg Olsen for another 22 yards, setting up a first-and-goal
at the 2. But the Hurricanes couldn't punch it in.
Gore was stuffed for no gain on first down, Berlin scrambled for a yard on second and then misfired on third.
Jon Peattie hit the 19-yard chip shot early in the fourth for Miami's first points.
Peattie also missed two field goal attempts earlier in the game. He missed a 52-yarder as time expired in the first half and was wide right on a 42-yarder late in the third quarter.
The Hurricanes had a chance to try another field goal in the third, but Coker opted to go for it on fourth-and-4 from the 32. Berlin threw an incomplete pass. It was something Miami saw much of the
night as Berlin misfired short and deep.
He finished 20-of-36 for 255 yards with a touchdown and an interception. Gore ran 18 times for 89 yards.
Florida State's offense, meanwhile, was outmatched against Miami's defense. The Seminoles lost for just the seventh time in ACC play.
"Our defense just stayed with it, and our offense finally made some big plays to give us a chance to win," Coker said.
No rivalry has affected the national championship picture as much as Florida State-Miami over the last two decades.
Either the Seminoles or Hurricanes have played for the title 13 times in the last 21 years, including six of the last eight. And only twice - Miami in 1989 and Florida State in 2000 - has the series
loser been able to play for it all.
Now the game could decide the ACC, too.
The Seminoles have won 11 of 12 league titles since joining the conference in 1992. But they could find it tough to win this season. They probably will need the Hurricanes to lose twice to have a
chance.

Florida State 34, Alabama-Birmingham 7
09/18/2004, Tallahassee, Fla.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
TALLAHASSEE, FL - Leon Washington ran for 104 yards and a touchdown and Florida State sacked Darrell Hackney eight times Saturday night to rebound from a disappointing loss to Miami with a 34-7
victory.
B.J. Dean, James Coleman and Chris Rix scored on 1-yard runs and Xavier Beitia kicked two field goals for Florida State.
After the offense failed to score a touchdown against the Hurricanes in a 16-10 loss, the Seminoles went 74 yards on their opening drive for a score. The big play was Washington's career-best 48-yard
run on the game's second play.
Florida State (1-1) had 489 offense and didn't punt until late in the fourth quarter.
In addition to getting to Hackney for 54 yards in losses, the Florida State defense limited UAB to 144 total yards and a minus-24 yards rushing.
The Blazers' lone touchdown came in the final minute of the first half on a 21-yard pass from Hackney to Reggie Lindsey.
Leading 17-7 at halftime, the Seminoles appeared ready to take command of the contest on their first drive of the second half but the erratic Rix was intercepted at the goal line by UAB safety Justin
Whitmore.
However, Florida State was back in business moments later when Pat Watkins 31-yard return with an interception set up Dean's 1-yard scoring run to give the Seminoles a 24-7 lead.
Washington's 2-yard TD run on the first play of the fourth quarter made it 31-7.
Rix was 18-for-29 for 191 yards before leaving in favor of little-used backup Wyatt Sexton in the fourth quarter.
After missing a 49-yard try midway through the first quarter, Beitia connected from 30 yards on the first play of the second quarter as Florida State built a 10-0 advantage. His 22-yard kick completed
the scoring in the fourth period.
Jae Thaxton blocked a punt by UAB's Parker Mullins to set up Coleman's 1-yard scoring run and give the Seminoles a 17-0 lead three minutes into the second quarter.
UAB (1-1) rolled up 516 yards offense in its 56-14 win over Baylor in its opener, but couldn't gain a yard or first down in the first quarter, managing only six plays.
Saturday's announced crowd of 81,825 included 1,400 victims of Hurricane Ivan who were given tickets by Florida State.

Florida State 41, Clemson 22
09/25/2004, Dedicated Bobby Bowden statue before the game., Tallahassee, Fla.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
TALLAHASSEE, FL - Wyatt Sexton threw for 162 yards and a touchdown after replacing an injured Chris Rix, and No. 8 Florida State forced five turnovers in a 41-22 victory over Clemson on Saturday.
Rix sprained his right ankle late in the first quarter and was able to return, but spent the rest of the game on the sideline watching Sexton direct the offense.
Sexton, a redshirt sophomore, completed 17 of 26 passes with a 47-yard scoring pass to Chauncey Stovall - the Seminoles' first TD pass of the season.
Justin Miller matched a school record with two kickoff return touchdowns for Clemson (1-3, 0-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), which has lost three straight.
The Seminoles (2-1, 1-1) avenged last year's 26-10 loss at Clemson and gave Florida State coach Bobby Bowden a 5-1 record in matchups against his son, Tigers coach Tommy Bowden.
It was also elder Bowden's 344th career victory, the most ever by a Division I-A coach.
The Tigers managed only 173 yards offense, just 23 in the second half.
The Seminoles' defense, ranked ninth nationally going into the game, intercepted Charlie Whitehurst three times and forced two fumbles. The defense scored one touchdown and set up another just 18
seconds apart in the second quarter.
The Seminoles took the lead 10-7 on B.J. Dean's 1-yard TD run, three plays after Charles Howard recovered a fumble by Whitehurst at the 18.
Whitehurst, on Clemson's next offensive play, was intercepted by Leroy Smith, who ran in 31 yards right past the quarterback to give the Seminoles a 17-7 lead.
This time Clemson countered as Curtis Baham - wide open in the end zone - pulled in a 12-yard TD from Whitehurst to make it 17-14 with 1:47 left in the half.
Miller's two TDs covered 97 and 86 yards and he set an ACC record with 282 yards on six returns. His second touchdown brought Clemson to within 24-22 midway through the third period.
Whitehurst, who has struggled all season, completed 10 of 24 passes for just 88 yards and lost two fumbles. He has 13 turnovers in Clemson's first four games, including 10 interceptions.
Five different players scored touchdowns for the Seminoles and Xavier Beitia kicked field goals of 29 and 38 yards.

Florida State 38, North Carolina 16
10/02/2004, Tallahassee, Fla.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
TALLAHASSEE, FL - Just like in the classroom, Florida State's Wyatt Sexton keeps on passing his on-field tests with style.
Sexton, who earlier this week was inducted into the university's prestigious Golden Key International Honor Society in recognition of his team-best 3.77 grade point average, threw three touchdown
passes in his starting debut Saturday as No. 9 Florida State defeated North Carolina 38-16.
Florida State (3-1, 2-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) built a 24-6 lead early in the third quarter, but didn't put the game out of reach until Sexton's 15-yard TD pass to Chauncey Stovall completed the
scoring with 6:53 left.
Stovall also caught a 5-yard scoring pass in the final minute of the first half that gave Florida State a 21-6 lead at halftime over North Carolina (2-3, 1-2).
Sexton, the son of Florida State assistant coach Billy Sexton, showed no signs of the nervousness he said followed him onto the field when he replaced Chris Rix last week.
"I felt comfortable and real at ease with everything today," Sexton said. "I've been waiting my whole life."
Sexton hit 10 of 11 passes to open the game as he took the Seminoles to touchdowns on their first two drives.
"You can't ask for much more than leading us to touchdowns on our first two drives," Florida State coach Bobby Bowden said.
Sexton completed 6 of 7 passes for 48 yards and drove the Seminoles 81 yards on their opening drive of the game, climaxed by Leon Washington's 18-yard run for a touchdown on a fourth-and-1 play.
Washington ran for 153 yards on just 10 carries and Lorenzo Booker added 84 yards, including a 12-yard scoring run in the second quarter.
"Both can do the same thing, just in different ways," Bowden said. "One throws a fastball and the other a curve."
Washington said the Seminoles respond well to Sexton's leadership.
"A lot of guys feed off the energy he has," Washington said. "Maybe he has to be calm, because he can't run the ball."
Florida State ignored the running game for most of the first half, but picked up 190 of its 249 yards rushing in the second half.
In the last two games, Sexton has hooked up with Stovall to complete 13 passes for 167 yards and three touchdowns.
Sexton is 43 for 66 for 406 yards this season, with four touchdowns and an interception.
"I think he's a heck of a player," said North Carolina coach John Bunting, who tried unsuccessfully to recruit Sexton. "I've said that before and he reinforced that today."
North Carolina managed 363 yards against Florida State's tough defense, but had difficulty reaching the end zone.
"When you play against a team like this, you've got to get seven points," North Carolina quarterback Darian Durant said. "We didn't capitalize like we needed to."
Durant passed for 254 yards and the Tar Heels' lone touchdown, an 8-yard scoring toss to Jawarski Pollock in the third quarter that cut Florida State's lead to 24-13.
Connor Barth kicked field goals of 20, 32 and 37 yards to round out North Carolina's scoring.
Sexton also teamed with Craphanso Thorpe on an 11-yard touchdown in the third quarter, and Lorenzo Booker added a 12-yard scoring run.
Sexton, who completed 20 of 31 passes for 191 yards, came off the bench last week and rallied Florida State from a 7-3 deficit to a 41-22 victory over Clemson after Rix sprained his right ankle.
Rix was on the sideline Saturday with a soft cast on his ankle and said he wasn't sure when he'll be able to return.
"They said I'm ahead of schedule," said Rix, who is out at least another week. "I'm focusing on getting back healthy."
But whether or not he has the starting job is another matter in the wake of consecutive strong performances by Sexton.
"I wouldn't touch that with a 10-foot pole," Bowden said when asked who would start after Rix heals.
Florida State put freshman quarterback Drew Weatherford into the game in the fourth quarter, but he sprained his right ankle on an bootleg to his left on his first college play, a call Sexton
criticized afterward as "crazy."
His coach agreed.
"I wish we hadn't called it," Bowden said. "It was a bad way to break him in."

Florida State 17, Syracuse 13
10/09/2004, Syracuse, N.Y.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
SYRACUSE, NY - Leon Washington rushed for a career-high 164 yards and scored on runs of 21 and 45 yards in the second half, and No. 8 Florida State survived a major scare, rallying past Syracuse 17-13
on Saturday night.
It was the third game against a ranked team for Syracuse (3-3), and unlike the previous two - a 51-0 loss at No. 9 Purdue and a 31-10 loss at No. 10 Virginia - the Orange made it difficult for the
Seminoles (4-1) and quarterback Wyatt Sexton, who was making his first road start.
Syracuse wasted two brilliant plays by safety Diamond Ferri. He put the Orange in terrific scoring position twice - with a fumble return and an interception - and they failed to score both times.
Against Florida State, that is a recipe for disaster, and the tide began to turn late in the third quarter with Syracuse clinging to a 10-3 lead.
Last week Sexton was 20-for-31 for 193 yards and three TDs in a win over North Carolina in his first career start. Against the Orange, he was 15-for-26 for 169 yards and maintained his poise in the
face of a raucous Carrier Dome crowd.
Sexton kept his passes short for most of the game. But he opened up with time winding down in the third, putting Syracuse on its heels with a 24-yard completion to Craphonso Thorpe and a 12-yarder to
Chauncey Stovall.
Facing a third-and-2 at the Syracuse 21, Washington scored on a run around the right side to tie it 10 with 2:41 left. It was the only third-down conversion of the game for the Seminoles.
The Orange went nowhere after the ensuing kickoff and the Seminoles struck again in only 34 seconds. Sexton hit Thorpe with a 15-yard sideline pass and on the next play Washington made a nifty cut
between two blocks and scored untouched on a 45-yard run down the left side with 13:29 left in the game to make it 17-10.
Syracuse closed to 17-13 on a 39-yard field goal by Collin Barber with 10 minutes left and drove to the Florida State 30 in the final minute. But linebacker Sam McGrew intercepted Perry Patterson's
pass with 5 seconds left to end it.
Patterson, who was brilliant in the first half, sputtered in the second and finished 19-for-28 for a career-high 207 yards. And with his passes not connecting, the Orange couldn't come back against
the Seminoles defense.
Florida State held Syracuse to only 58 yards rushing a week after the Orange ran for 360 yards against Rutgers. Walter Reyes, who rushed for 237 yards last week, was held to 27 on 14 carries.
Syracuse took the opening kickoff and drove to the Florida State 30 before the drive stalled, and Barber kicked a 44-yard field goal for a 3-0 lead. Wide receiver Landel Bembo, who grew up in the
shadow of Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee and always wanted to be a Seminole, keyed the drive with a 32-yard run off a reverse.
The Seminoles tied it on Xavier Beitia's 28-yard field goal with 1:04 left in the first. The fired-up Orange defense, which limited the Seminoles to 75 yards passing and 76 rushing in the first half,
held after Florida State moved to a first-and-10 at the Syracuse 11-yard line.
After the ensuing kickoff, a roughing-the-passer penalty against the Seminoles gave Syracuse a first down just past midfield, and Patterson quickly took advantage, hitting Jared Jones with a 44-yard
touchdown pass.
Unlike last week, when he overthrew several wide-open receivers before rallying Syracuse past Rutgers, Patterson was nearly flawless in the first half, going 10-for-12 for 145 yards and his third
career TD pass.
Syracuse led 10-3 at halftime, and the lead could have been larger. Ferri ripped the ball out of Lorenzo Booker's hands at the Syracuse 25 and returned it 30 yards, but Barber missed wide right on a
42-yard field goal try with 4:53 left in the second.
After Florida State went three and out, Patterson hit Andre Fontenette for 33 yards and Reyes gained another 24 on a screen pass. But three plays later Reyes fumbled on a first-and-goal play from the
5 and Bryant McFadden recovered for Florida State.
Syracuse missed another great opportunity at the start of the second half. The Seminoles drove to midfield, but Ferri intercepted a pass over the middle and returned it 45 yards to the Florida State
23. When the Orange offense faltered, Barber missed wide left on a 37-yard field goal, this one from 37 yards. Barber was 7-for-9 entering the game, and both misses had come from beyond 40 yards.
Beitia also missed a 38-yard field goal try on the Seminoles' next possession.

Florida State 36, Virginia 3
10/16/2004, Tallahassee, Fla.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
TALLAHASSEE, FL, - Virginia was ranked higher than Florida State and looking for its first road win against a top-10 team.
The No. 6 Cavaliers couldn't even get a touchdown Saturday.
"When the Florida State defense comes to play...you see what happens," Seminoles linebacker Buster Davis said. "We shut teams down."
Wyatt Sexton's precision passing took care of the offense as the No. 7 Seminoles rolled to a 36-3 victory over previously undefeated Virginia and picked up their first win over a higher ranked team
for the first time since the 1998 season.
Tailback Lorenzo Booker rushed for a career-high 123 yards and two touchdown runs, while Florida State's defense limited Virginia to 20 yards rushing.
"You get no field position and that's a (death) sentence against a team like this," Virginia coach Al Groh said. "It always has been."
Groh said it was the best Florida State team he's seen since coming to Virginia four years ago.
"They do nothing to make it easy on an opponent," he said.
Sexton completed 20 of 26 passes for 275 yards and a touchdown despite having five passes dropped. He has completed 66.1 percent of his passes for 846 yards and five touchdowns since replacing Chris
Rix as the starter last month.
"I couldn't ask for a better outing from Wyatt," Florida State Bobby Bowden said. "He's gotten better every game. It's kind of too good to be true right now."
Sexton, however, was modest about his second near-flawless performance in three weeks.
"The offensive line made things easy for me," he said. "All I had to do was drop back and do what I've been coached to do."
Florida State (5-1, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) easily played its best game of the season, getting big plays from its special teams and beating Virginia for the seventh straight time at home.
Florida State's win snapped a string of six straight losses against top-10 opponents. Virginia missed an opportunity for a road win against a top-10 team for the first time.
With No. 5 Purdue also losing, the Seminoles will likely move up in the rankings. Their only loss was a 16-10 overtime setback against Miami in their opener.
Virginia (5-1, 2-1 ACC) came into the game averaging 42.4 points and 493.2 yards, but was unable to run against Florida State's vaunted rush defense, which gave up just 5 yards in the first half.
Virginia's only points came on a 23-yard field goal by Connor Hughes as time expired in the first half.
Only the elusiveness of Virginia quarterback Marques Hagans got the Cavaliers on the scoreboard. Under a heavy rush all night, Hagans managed to complete 9 of 11 passes to set up the field goal.
Hagans completed 20 of 30 passes for 214 yards and was intercepted once before leaving after three quarters in favor of Christian Olsen.
Tight end Heath Miller caught nine passes for 110 yards for Virginia.
Sexton, meanwhile, was slicing up the Cavaliers.
The sophomore shook off the early drops and completed pass after pass, one a perfectly thrown pass to Chauncey Stovall, who outjumped Virginia's Marcus Hamilton for the ball and a 19-0 lead.
Despite four drops, Sexton completed 16 of 21 passes for 179 yards and a touchdown in the first half, throwing to nine receivers.
Florida State's special teams started the scoring.
Linebacker Ernie Sims broke free from his left side and blocked Sean Johnson's punt into the end zone midway through the first quarter for a safety and a 2-0 Florida State lead.
Leon Washington scored on a 5-yard run and finished with 68 yards rushing while Xavier Beitia kicked two field goals and missed one.

Florida State 20, Wake Forest 17
10/23/2004, Winston-Salem, N.C.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
WINSTON-SALEM, NC, October 23, 2004 - Xavier Beitia kicked a 22-yard field goal with 1:03 to play to help No. 5 Florida State pull off a surprisingly close 20-17 victory over Wake Forest on
Saturday.
Seminoles quarterback Wyatt Sexton had a tough day, committing three turnovers that nearly cost Florida State (6-1, 4-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) the game.
He helped Wake Forest build a 14-3 lead before halftime with an interception and a fumble, and both turnovers were returned for touchdowns.
After pushing the Seminoles ahead with touchdown passes of 20 and 46-yards, Sexton gave Wake Forest another chance late in the fourth quarter when he foolishly attempted a pass that was tipped by
Jerome Nichols and intercepted by freshman Jeremy Thompson.
That set up Ryan Plackemeir's 41-yard field goal that tied the game at 17 with 4:32 to play.
Florida State then needed a 46-yard run by Lorenzo Booker on third-and-10 and a 14-yard pass from Sexton to Dominic Robinson on third-and-6 to set up the game-winning field goal.
Wake Forest (3-4, 0-4) dropped another close one to remain winless in conference play. The Demon Deacons have not been easy opponent, though, taking Clemson and North Carolina State into overtime and
battling down to the wire against Virginia Tech and the Seminoles.
Despite the miscues, Sexton improved to 4-0 as a starter since taking over for Chris Rix. He finished 17-for-39 for 194 yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions and a fumble.
It was clear early Sexton wasn't going to have the same kind of day he did last week when he completed 20 of 26 passes for a career-high 275 yards in the Seminoles' dismantling of Virginia.
He got off to a bad start when he was called for intentional grounding on the third play of the game, and it just got worse from there. Nichols had the first of his two tipped passes late in the first
quarter and Matt Robinson intercepted it, returning it 19 yards for a touchdown and a 7-0 Wake Forest lead.
Sexton later fumbled on a sack by Eric King, and Brad White scooped the ball up and rumbled 36 yards for a touchdown that put Wake Forest up 14-3 right before halftime.
But Wyatt got some third-quarter help from Willie Reid, who returned a punt 48 yards to the Wake Forest 14. After Booker lost yards on a fumble, the Seminoles went to Reid to put points on the board
with a 20-yard touchdown pass from Sexton that cut Wake Forest's lead to 14-10.
Sexton wasn't able to give Florida State's its first lead of the game until the fourth quarter, when he threw a 46 yard touchdown pass to Robinson to put the Seminoles up 17-14 with 9:59 to go.
Wake Forest, averaging 221.7 yards rushing a game, struggled against the nation's best run defense.
Florida State held the Deacons to 133 yards on the ground.
Beitia also made a 44-yarder, but had a blocked field goal in the first quarter when Thompson, making his first career start, got a hand on the 38-yard attempt.
Plackemeier also missed a 39-yarder.
Wake Forest's Jason Anderson had six catches for 99 yards to become the only active player in the ACC to go over 2,000 yards receiving.

From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
COLLEGE PARK, MD - Florida State's dominance of Maryland ended with a highly improbable upset.
Joel Statham threw for 333 yards and ran for a score, and the Terrapins held on to beat the fifth-ranked Seminoles 20-17 Saturday.
Florida State (6-2, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) came in with a six-game winning streak and a perfect 14-0 record against Maryland (4-4, 2-3), which had scored a total of 17 points in losing three
straight conference games.
But the Seminoles fell behind 20-10 before turning to former starting quarterback Chris Rix at the start of the fourth quarter. On his second series, Rix moved FSU to the 35 before a 52-yard field
goal try by Xavier Beitia hit the left crossbar.
On his next drive, Rix threw his first touchdown pass of the season, a 16-yarder to Chauncey Stovall with 7:43 remaining that made it 20-17.
After a Maryland punt, Rix got the Seminoles in position for another field goal attempt by Beitia, who was wide left on 45-yard field goal try with 4:45 left.
Rix got one final chance two minutes later, but his fourth-down pass from the FSU 27 soared over the head of Lome Sam with 1:38 to go, setting off a wild celebration among the sellout crowd of
52,203.
At game's end, thousands of fans rushed the field and embraced the players - but spared the goal posts, which were guarded by uniformed police.
Maryland had never come closer than 14 points against the Seminoles, and it seemed unlikely that the pattern would change during a season in which Statham had struggled to the point of putting his
starting job in jeopardy.
But the sophomore repeatedly pierced the nation's eighth-ranked defense with slant patterns and screen passes, finding seven different receivers in going 21-for-40 with one interception. On third
down, he was 8-for-15 for 134 yards.
The Terrapins' defense was equally impressive in their first win over a top 10 team since 1990.
Florida State starting quarterback Wyatt Sexton went 14-for-30 for 164 yards and two interceptions, and halfback Lorenzo Booker was limited to 51 yards on 13 carries.
Booker played in place of Leon Washington, who has a separated right shoulder. Washington ranks third in the ACC with 689 yards rushing and leads the Seminoles with six touchdowns.
Down 13-3 at halftime, the Seminoles sliced into the deficit when Antonio Cromartie returned an interception 40 yards for a touchdown with 12:58 left in the third quarter.
But Statham answered with a third-down screen pass to Josh Allen, who weaved his way for a 72-yard score and a 10-point cushion.
Maryland moved 68 yards on its opening drive before Nick Novak kicked a 43-yard field goal for a 3-0 lead. Statham went 3-for-3 for 65 yards, including a 39-yarder to Danny Melendez.
Beitia tied it with a 48-yard field goal late in the quarter, six plays after a pass interference call against Maryland's Ray Custis on a third-and-6 play that the Terps questioned.
The Terrapins regained the lead when Novak ended a 14-play drive with a 45-yard field goal. The march was extended when the Seminoles went offside on a fourth-and-1 at the FSU 33.
Maryland made it 13-3 midway through the second quarter with a drive that featured a 35-yard run by wide receiver Jo Jo Walker. After Statham completed a 33-yard pass to Vernon Davis on third-and-12,
the quarterback ran it in from the 1.
It was only the second rushing touchdown against the Seminoles this season, and it ended a run of 12 straight quarters in which they did not yield an offensive TD.

Florida State 29, Duke 7
11/06/2004, Tallahassee, Fla.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
TALLAHASSEE, FL - Backup quarterback Wyatt Sexton led three long scoring drives in the second half, and Gary Cismesia tied a school record with five field goals in his college debut to lead
13th-ranked Florida State past Duke 29-7 Saturday.
Sexton completed 11 of 15 passes for 220 yards and a touchdown while taking the Seminoles on drives of 93, 80 and 70 yards to break open a tight game with 20 straight points.
Florida State (7-2, 5-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) struggled on offense in the first half, managing three short field goals from Cismesia to make it 9-0.
Sexton replaced Chris Rix, who failed to get the Seminoles into the end zone in the first half while making his first start in six weeks. Rix went 9-of-15 for just 94 yards and threw an interception
that set up Duke's touchdown - his 37th pick at FSU.
The Seminoles reached Duke's 1, 6 and 3 on successive series in the first quarter before settling for the kicks by Cismesia, a freshman playing in place of slumping senior Xavier Beitia.
Rix, under a heavy rush, was intercepted by Duke's Cody Lowe at midfield late in the second half to set up the game's first touchdown. Lowe ran 26 yards to the Florida State 24, and eight plays later
Cedric Dargan scored on a 1-yard run to pull the Blue Devils within 9-7.
Duke wasted a second-half scoring chance when Mike Schneider was intercepted in the end zone by Pat Watkins.
The Seminoles went up 19-9 on Cismesia's fourth field goal, and Sexton's 45-yard touchdown pass to Chris Davis. The hosts made it 26-7 with a little more than 11 minutes left on freshman Lamar Lewis'
4-yard TD run.
Cismesia's fifth field goal, from 43 yards, tied a school record. Sebastian Janikowski - now with the Oakland Raiders - kicked five in a game twice for FSU, and Bill Capece did it once.

Florida State 17, North Carolina State 10
11/11/2004, Raleigh, N.C.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
RALEIGH, NC - Wyatt Sexton got knocked down time and time again. When he did stay on his feet, his passes rarely found their target.
Still, his team won, thanks to a defense every bit as stingy as
the one on the other side of the field.
"I love 'em, that's all I can say," Sexton said of his defensive teammates.
Lorenzo Booker and James Coleman each ran for third-quarter touchdowns, helping No. 11 Florida State rally past North Carolina State 17-10 Thursday night in a game that featured 22 punts, four
turnovers and less than 250 yards of combined offense.
Last season, these two teams went to double overtime before the Seminoles prevailed 50-44. It seems a lot longer than a year ago in a lot of ways.
"It was a defensive war from the very beginning," Seminoles coach Bobby Bowden said. "I hadn't seen a defensive battle like that in a long time. Totally dominating."
Florida State (8-2, 6-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) went deep into the second quarter before its yardage total exceeded the number of plays. Sexton finished 5-for-18 for only 73 yards, and leading
rusher Leon Washington was held to 56 yards on 18 carries after missing the previous two games with a shoulder injury.
The only thing that kept Sexton on the field was an injury to backup Chris Rix, who had a sore ankle and likely would have had a tough time evading the pressure from N.C. State.
"If Chris had his wheels, I probably definitely would have" changed quarterbacks, Bowden said. "Because we were getting sacked so much, I feel like we've got to have a quarterback that move
around."
Still, it was enough. The lone touchdown for the Wolfpack (4-6, 3-5) came on Darrell Blackman's 87-yard punt return in the second quarter that gave them a 10-0 lead. But even though they rotated
quarterbacks, they couldn't generate much offense after halftime.
They had only one first down - fittingly, on a pass interference penalty - and 26 yards in the final two periods. Jay Davis and Marcus Stone were a combined 9-for-25 for 100 yards as former N.C. State
star quarterback Philip Rivers watched from the sidelines.
Boston Red Sox outfielder Trot Nixon, whose wife attended N.C. State, joined Rivers, but even he couldn't provide the necessary karma to help the Wolfpack. They won't be going to a bowl for the first
time in five seasons under coach Chuck Amato.
"Things happen for a reason, and we'll learn from this and improve," he said. "I'm proud of our kids for being in that game and being in a position to win at the end."
After spending the entire first half on its own side of midfield, Florida State started all five of its drives in the third quarter in N.C. State's territory. Coleman capped the first one with a
1-yard plunge to make it 10-7, and after a three-and-out by the Wolfpack, the Seminoles needed to drive only 35 yards for the go-ahead score.
Sexton completed a 25-yard pass to Booker on third-and-6 to set up first-and-goal, and a play later, Booker raced in from the 4 to give Florida State a 14-10 lead against what he called the best
defense the Seminoles had seen all season.
"Better than Miami's, better than Virginia's," Booker said. "I say that because they were everywhere. It was like you break a tackle or get outside, and there are three more guys coming."
Gary Cismesia added a 44-yard field goal late in the quarter to complete the scoring. That kick came after a fumble by N.C. State tailback T.A. McLendon gave the Seminoles the ball at the 15, and even
though three plays lost 11 yards, Cismesia still was close enough.
"I've never been involved with a game like this," Amato said. "We had the field position in the first half, and they had it in the second half. Without a doubt, it was a defensive struggle."

Florida 20, Florida State 13
11/20/2004, Renamed football field to Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium., Tallahassee, Fla.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
TALLAHASSEE, FL - This one was for The Zooker.
Chris Leak threw a touchdown, Ciatrick Fason ran for a score and Florida upset No. 10 Florida State 20-13 Saturday night to win in Tallahassee for the first time since 1986.
It also gave fired coach Ron Zook a victory in his final regular-season game.
Condemned since the day he replaced Steve Spurrier, Zook finally did something the ol' ball coach didn't in his 12 glorious seasons with the Gators - he won at Florida State.
The players carried Zook off the field, and the coach flashed a big smile that had been missing for much of his three seasons.
The Gators (7-4) ended any legitimate chance the Seminoles had of earning a third straight Bowl Championship Series berth. Florida State (8-3) still could finish tied for the Atlantic Coast Conference
title but would likely lose all tiebreaker scenarios because of their BCS ranking, which is expected to drop Monday.
Florida also spoiled a special night for longtime Seminoles coach Bobby Bowden. Before the game, the school named its playing surface "Bobby Bowden Field" and unveiled a 20-by-30 foot stained glass
window at the stadium featuring Bowden's likeness.
Spurrier - who was 0-5-1 in six trips to Tallahassee - must have loved the upset, too.
The Gators threw with relative ease against Florida State's vaunted defense. Leak finished 19-for-39 with an interception.
Fason's 8-yard touchdown run with 4:59 remaining put the Gators ahead for good.
It was almost a redemption story, though.
Embattled Florida State quarterback Chris Rix came off the bench and threw a touchdown pass with 8:30 to play that cut the lead to 13-10.
He rolled right and heaved a pass into the end zone that Chauncey Stovall caught over Vernell Brown. The pass was reminiscent of Rix's 52-yard touchdown pass to P.K. Sam with 55 seconds remaining last
season that gave the Seminoles a 38-34 win.
Rix also drove the Seminoles to the 18-yard line in the waning seconds, but his last pass was intercepted by Jarvis Harris with 8 seconds to play.
Florida players then grabbed a bucket of water and drenched Zook. They quickly surrounded him and started jumping up and down as they hoisted him into the air and carried him toward midfield. After he
shook hands with Bowden and did a few interviews, the players raised him up again and carried him off.
Zook pumped his right fist and then held the game ball up high as he excited into a tunnel.
He hasn't said whether he's going to coach the bowl game.
Rix, who entered Saturday's game late in the third quarter, drove the Seminoles into field goal range on his first possession. But Gary Cismesia missed a 32-yarder. Cismesia, who had been perfect in
seven tries since replacing senior Xavier Beitia midway through the season, also missed from 39 yards out on the first play of the fourth quarter.
Beitia got the call after the second miss and nailed a career-high 52-yard field goal with 3:48 remaining that made it a seven-point game.
Zook - with nothing to lose since he was fired last month - made a gutsy call with 2:35 to play and gambled on fourth-and-inches from the Florida 26. Had the play failed, the Seminoles would have been
in great position to tie the game.
But Leak got the first down on a quarterback keeper. They eventually were forced to punt, but the time taken off the clock left little left for the Seminoles to score.

Florida State 30, West Virginia 18
01/01/2005, Jacksonville, Fla.
From the FSU Website, seminoles.com.
JACKSONVILLE, FL - Nice recovery, Chris Rix.
Coach Bobby Bowden stuck with his struggling quarterback and Rix eventually sparked No. 17 Florida State with two long second-half touchdown drives Saturday, beating West Virginia 30-18 in the Gator
Bowl.
"Chris played kind of like his career has gone," Bowden said. That's what's been missing all year. We finally got it, but now the season is over."
For Rix, the inconsistent performance provided a fitting end in his final game. At least it didn't end with a loss as the Seminoles (9-3) overcame mistake after mistake to avoid an unprecedented third
straight bowl setback.
Bowden, facing his former school for the first time since the 1982 Gator Bowl, moved within one bowl win of Joe Paterno's NCAA record of 19 at Penn State.
Rix fumbled three times and threw two interceptions, one of which led to a touchdown. So at halftime, Bowden thought about replacing Rix.
"It wouldn't have taken much more," the coach said.
Rix eventually settled down, completing five straight passes during a 90-yard drive late in the third quarter, capped by his 14-yard TD pass to Craphonso Thorpe. Thorpe leaped for the ball over Dee
McCann in the right corner of the end zone for a 23-15 lead.
It was only Rix's third TD pass of the season.
"We were good throwing today when we had to," said Florida State offensive coordinator Jeff Bowden.
Rix also led an 80-yard scoring drive in the fourth, capped by James Coleman's 1-yard run. Rix finished 16-of-31 for 157 yards.
"Statistically, I didn't have the game I wanted," Rix said. "But the biggest thing is that we won."
Leon Washington carried Florida State much of the day, finishing with 195 yards rushing.
Quarterback Rasheed Marshall and West Virginia's platoon of running backs shredded the nation's top run defense for 238 yards. Kay-Jay Harris carried 25 times for 134 yards and scored twice.
But the Mountaineers (8-4) failed to find the end zone three times after advancing inside the 20-yard line.
"We prepared well. The focus was good. The effort was good. We just made some mistakes," said West Virginia coach Rich Rodriguez. "You make mistakes against good teams, especially like Florida State,
it's going to cost you the game. It's as simple as that."
West Virginia has lost 11 of its last 12 bowls games and is 0-5 in the Gator.
West Virginia, the only unranked team playing in a New Year's Day bowl, continued special teams miscues that were costly in losses to Boston College and Pittsburgh to end the regular season.
In the first half, two kickers missed extra point, Brad Cooper booted a kickoff out of bounds, and the Mountaineers later faked a 27-yard field goal attempt, but couldn't convert the first-down
run.
"We weren't real confident on kicking field goals after we missed a couple of extra points," Rodriguez said.
Backup Andy Good practiced his kicks feverishly before the start of the third quarter, and it paid off. He made field goals of 44 and 34 yards to cut the deficit to 23-18 early in the fourth
period.
The game featured the preseason favorites of the Big East and Atlantic Coast Conference who couldn't secure BCS berths.
The Seminoles needed only six plays to score a season-high 10 points in the first quarter.
Washington went 69 yards down the right sideline on the game's second play for the longest TD run in Gator Bowl history. He had 135 yards by halftime and had only 12 carries for the game, or else he
might have challenged the Gator Bowl record of 216 yards by Syracuse's Floyd Little against Tennessee in 1966.
West Virginia's Adam Jones fumbled the ensuing kickoff and Gerard Ross recovered at the Mountaineers 17, leading to one of three Xavier Beitia field goals.
It was a start similar to last year's Gator Bowl, when Maryland scored 10 early points, led 24-0 at halftime and beat West Virginia 41-7.
This time, West Virginia fought back.
Harris scored on a 36-yard screen pass on the Mountaineers' first offensive series. McCann intercepted Rix later in the quarter and Marshall threw a 40-yard pass to Chris Henry to the 1. Harris took
it in for a 12-10 lead.
After the game, Henry, a junior who set a school record with 12 TD catches this season, said he intends to enter next spring's NFL draft.
Florida State's Lorenzo Booker had 101 yards rushing on 20 carries. The Seminoles were penalized 17 times for 174 yards, both Gator Bowl records.
The Gator Bowl is sponsored by Toyota.
