One of the best in-state rivalries in college football will take place on Saturday afternoon in week 11 of the college football season when the Miami Hurricanes travel to Tallahassee, Florida to face the Florida State Seminoles at Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium with the game airing nationally on ABC and kickoff scheduled for 3:30 PM ET.

The Miami Hurricanes have had a solid season this year, however, they will not make the ACC Championship game as they enter this game with an overall record of 6-3 and an ACC record of 2-3 which puts them in 9^th place in the conference. The Hurricanes also saw their two-game winning streak come to an end last Saturday when Miami lost to the NC State Wolfpack on the road by a score of 6-20 while also failing to cover the 6.5-point spread as a road favorite. The offense for the Hurricanes struggled as they were only able to gain 292 total yards offensively and even though the defense only allowed 231 total yards they allowed 20 points while also being -2 in the turnover battle in the loss against the Wolfpack and things won’t get any easier as they will travel to face their rivals who are also the best team in the ACC this season in the Florida State Seminoles.

Florida State is having its best season in recent years as they have already secured their spot in the ACC Championship game and are looking like they will qualify for the College Football Playoffs this season as they enter this game ranked 3^rd in the College Football Playoff rankings with an overall record of 9-0 which includes a 7-0 record in the ACC following a 24-7 win on the road against the Pittsburgh Panthers while failing to cover the 20.5-point spread as a road favorite. Jordan Travis has been a major part of the success that the Seminoles have had this season as he has completed 186 of 289 attempts for 2,469 yards with 19 touchdowns and two interceptions while also rushing for 190 yards and seven touchdowns. He will look to continue to build on that momentum when he faces the Miami Hurricanes at home on Saturday afternoon.
