PREVIEW: The Seminoles opened as a seven point favorite, but money has come in on Ole Miss, forcing the line down three points. The Total has been holding strong between 57-58. Florida State will start new quarterback Deondre Francois a redshirt freshman. He was chosen after fifth-year senior quarterback Sean Maguire fractured a bone in his foot. he will have help from running back Dalvin Cook who has rushed for 2,699 yards in just two seasons. Ole Miss has a veteran and one of the top quarterbacks in the SEC named Chad Kelly. Kelly has to play very well for the Rebels to have a shot, and take the short passing game to a higher level to counter a great Seminole defense. The Ole Miss front has to be solid against the run by keeping Dalvin Cook from making big plays. You can be sure the Seminole front line will not be easy to crack as well as an excellent secondary. Turnovers will be crucial if Ole Miss is to have a chance. This is a huge test for the Rebels on both sides of the ball.
