KIDZ1STFUNDOn Aug. 5, 2011, Jimbo Fisher and Candi Fisher launched their public battle against Fanconi anemia (FA) after their youngest son, Ethan (now 12), was diagnosed with the rare disease that spring. Kidz1stFund was created with the goals of improving treatment options, raising national awareness of the disease, and helping to fund research that will lead to a cure.

The returns on the hard work have been impressive as Kidz1stFund has given more than $4.5 million for FA research to the University of Minnesota’s Fanconi Anemia Comprehensive Care Program.

The Fisher’s commitment to defeating the disease is already showing progress for the families affected by the disease nationwide.

NOLES HEAD TO MASSACHUSETTS FOR FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHT WITH BC » Florida State travels to Boston College for a Friday night showdown against the Eagles. The

Seminoles have won seven straight against the Eagles, all coming under head coach Jimbo Fisher.

» Fisher's seven wins (7-0) against the Eagles are his most against any opponent, tied with Miami (7-1) and Wake Forest (7-1).

LAST TIME VS. THE EAGLES » FSU beat Boston College 45-7 last year in Tallahassee, moving Fisher to 7-0 vs. the Eagles as HC. » The win was FSU's largest against an ACC opponent since a 40-point win against Wake Forest in

2014. Deondre Francois (3) and Sean Maguire (2) combined for five touchdown passes. » FSU's defense held BC scoreless for the first 56 minutes of the game and the Eagles did not

record a first down in the second and third quarters. » Boston College's 50 passing yards were the fewest passing yards FSU allowed against an ACC

opponent since Georgia Tech had 45 in 1993. LAST TIME AT ALUMNI STADIUM » FSU shut out Boston College 14-0 in 2015, the Seminoles' second road shutout of an ACC oppo-

nent (North Carolina, 37-0, 2003). » Jalen Ramsey returned a fumble 36 yards for a touchdown, the last defensive score for FSU

before last week's 34-yard fumble return for a TD by Matthew Thomas.

is 21-12 on Friday nights, including a 2-0 record in 2016: 45-7 vs. Boston College and 33-32 vs. Michigan in the Orange Bowl.

» In regular season games, FSU is 13-12 on Friday nights. Prior to 2015 against BC, FSU's last Fri-day night regular season game was at Miami in 2004, which was rescheduled due to hurricanes in southern Florida.

BIG-PLAY TATE STILL MAKING NOISE » Junior receiver Auden Tate saw his streak of consecutive games with a touchdown reception

snapped at five against Louisville, one shy of a share of the Florida State record. Most encour-agingly, however, he led the Noles with five receptions (62 yards) which was his most productive outing since suffering a shoulder injury against NC State on Sept. 23.

» Tate still leads the team in receptions (23), receiving yards (374) and TD receptions (5). » The Irmo, S.C. native is FSU’s active career leader for receptions (49), receiving yards (783) and TD

receptions (11). » He is averaging one TD every 4.45 receptions and 16.0 yards per reception, despite averaging just

1.9 receptions per game for his career. In terms of touchdown-to-reception productivity, Tate’s 1:4.45 ratio is ahead of FSU’s top 10 career TD reception leaders.

AKERS RUNNING WITH ELITE GROUP » Tailback Cam Akers is in the process of putting up one of the top rushing seasons by a true fresh-

man in FSU history. The Clinton, Miss. native leads the Seminoles in rushing with 454 yards and is rapidly approaching a spot among FSU’s top five true freshmen for rushing yardage.

» Sharing the load with productive starter Jacques Patrick (434 yds.), Akers led the Noles in rushing for a third consecutive game with 75 yards on 16 carries against Louisville.

» That followed back-to-back 100-yard games against Duke (115) and Miami (121), becoming just the fifth FSU true freshman to record consecutive 100-yard games. Dalvin Cook did it in three consecutive games in 2014.

» Akers ranks seventh nationally among true freshmen in rushing yardage. Akers trails Boston College's AJ Dillon (694) among ACC freshmen, but Akers has a 5.2-4.6 yards per carry advantage.

BLACKMAN AT BEST IN FOURTH QUARTER » True freshman quarterback James Blackman is developing a reputation for rising up to play his

best football in the fourth quarter. He directed the Noles back from a two touchdown deficit against Louisville, capped by his 20-yard, game-tying touchdown pass to Nyqwan Murray with 8:58 to play.

» The proof of Blackman’s fourth quarter success is in the numbers. He is 26-of-45 for 385 yards and four touchdowns in the final quarter of his first five starts, and has not thrown an interception.

» His four fourth quarter TD passes tie him for 12th in Division I and lead all freshmen quarterbacks. » Blackman is one of only 10 quarterbacks with four touchdowns and no interceptions in the fourth

quarter this season. His 14 completions of 15 or more yards rank seventh nationally and his pass-ing yards and QBR in the fourth quarter sit 26th nationally.

GROUND GAME GROWING BEHIND TANDEM » Though the Noles were unable to improve on their season-best rushing total for a fifth consecutive

week against Louisville, they did average better than four yards per carry for the fourth straight game. FSU has already faced three rushing defenses ranked among the top 10 nationally (Alabama, NC State, Duke).

ROAD WARRIORS » Florida State is 2-0 this season in true road games, owning wins at Wake Forest (26-19) and Duke

(17-10). » FSU’s defense has been the catalyst in its two road victories, holding its two opponents to an

average of 3.5 yards per carry and just 103.5 rush yards per game. » The Seminoles have held opponents to just 9-of-27 (33.3 percent) on third-down conversions in

their two road games. Getting the opposition off the field has been key in FSU’s 35:42-24:18 time of possession advantage on the road.

» Redshirt senior linebacker Matthew Thomas has been FSU’s top performer in its two road games, combining for a team-best 15 tackles while adding three TFLs (-31 yards) and two sacks.

SWEAT THERAPY » Junior Josh Sweat has emerged as FSU’s most consistent edge rusher this season, leading the

Seminoles in sacks (3.5) and tackles for loss (7.5). » Saturday vs. Louisville, the Chesapeake, Va., native registered a career-high nine tackles while

adding two TFLs and one sack. » In FSU’s previous game at Duke on Oct. 14, Sweat came up with one of the biggest plays of the

game. He sacked Duke QB Daniel Jones on the game’s final drive at the Duke 36, allowing nearly 30 seconds to tick off as the Blue Devils tried to come back from a 17-10 deficit. Sweat's sack of Jones was the Seminoles' only sack of the game.

» In the season opener vs. Alabama, Sweat garnered ACC Defensive Lineman of the Week honors after posting five tackles, which included a seven-yard sack.

» The talented pass-rusher is seventh in the ACC with an average of 1.25 TFLs per game.

GETTING DEFENSIVE VS. THE EAGLES » Under head coach Jimbo Fisher, the Seminoles own a 7-0 record vs. Boston College since 2010. The

last time FSU fell to the Eagles was by a 28-21 defeat in 2009. » Under Fisher’s reign, FSU has only allowed 20+ points to the Eagles in one of the seven games

played. Ironically, that was in FSU’s dominant 2013 National Championship season, winning 48-34 at BC in what was considered its worst defensive showing of that season by far.

» The Eagles are averaging just 13 points per game vs. the Seminoles in the seven-game span. FSU owns one shutout, a 14-0 win at BC in 2015 in which a defensive scoop-and-score was recorded by DB Jalen Ramsey.

FOURTH-DOWN GAINS » Florida State was able to buckle down on fourth-down attempts by the offense this season,

holding Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson and Louisville to 0-for-2 on fourth downs last game.

» A huge stop was made by defensive ends Josh Sweat and Brian Burns with 4:38 left in a tied game vs. the Cardinals. Both edge rushers crashed the backfield and stopped Louisville’s Reggie Bonnafon for no gain at the FSU 27, turning the ball back over.

» Opponents made the first five fourth-down tries against FSU this season, but the final play at Duke was batted down on fourth down before the Cardinals' 0-for-2 day.

THOMAS AND TREY » Redshirt senior linebacker Matthew Thomas and senior DB Trey Marshall are coming off big perfor-

maces vs. Louisville, hoping to carry that momentum into a short turn-around at Boston College. » Thomas and Marshall led FSU with 10 tackles apiece. It was Thomas’ third 10-tackle performance

of the season, tying his season high. » Marshall’s 10 wrap-ups marked a season high, falling just short of his career high of 11, which he

has recorded twice before. » Despite playing in five of the six games this season, Marshall is fifth on the Seminoles with 24

tackles, while Thomas is tied with DB Derwin James for first with 37. » Thomas (3) and Marshall (1) have the only double-digit tackle games of the year for FSU.

NATIONAL HONORS

28A span of 28 games had passed between defensive touchdowns for Florida State after Matthew Thomas’ 34-yard scoop and score vs. Louisville last week. It was FSU’s first defensive score since Jalen Ramsey returned a fumble 36 yards for a TD at Boston College on Sept. 18, 2015.

RICKY AGUAYO BY THE NUMBERS » Ricky Aguayo, who made a school-record 6 field goals against Ole Miss on Sept. 5, 2016, has made

at least one field goal in four of Florida State’s six games (37, 36, 37 and 34 yards against NC State; 51, 27, 37 and 35 yards against Wake Forest, 27 and 38 yards against Miami; 23 yards against Duke).

» His 51-yarder at Wake Forest is the longest of his career. » With 11 field goals made this year, he has made 30 career field goals. He is ranked ninth in school

history with his 30 career FG’s and is 1 of 9 kickers in school history with 30 career FG’s made. » His .984 percentage (63 of 64) on PAT’s is the third best in school history behind Roberto Aguayo

(198-198, 2013-15) and Bill Capece (40-40, 1977-80).

SEMINOLES OWN LONGEST PAT STREAK IN HISTORY » Ricky Aguayo has made 63 of 64 career PAT’s (.984). Before having his final PAT attempt of 2016

blocked in the Orange Bowl against No. 6 Michigan, Aguayo made the first 51 PAT’s of his career. » Florida State owns the NCAA record for consecutive extra points made with 302. FSU broke the

previous record of 263 (Syracuse, 1978-89) against USF on Sept. 24, 2016. » Dustin Hopkins made his final 50 PAT’s in 2012 and three-time All-American Roberto Aguayo was

198-for-198 from 2013-15. Ricky Aguayo was 51-for-52 and Logan Tyler was 3-for-3 in 2016. » The Aguayo brothers (Ricky and Roberto) have combined to make 262 of 263 (.996) career PAT’s.

GAVIN’S KICKOFF RETURN NUMBERS » Keith Gavin’s career-long 81-yard kickoff return against Wake Forest set up the Seminoles’ first

touchdown against the Deacons. He now has seven career kickoff returns for 227 yards (32.4 ypr). » Gavin’s 81-yard return at Wake is FSU’s longest since Kermit Whitfield’s 100-yard take-back in the

2013 BCS National Championship Game. » Along with Derwin James’ 36-yard return and George Campbell’s 16-yarder, FSU’s 133 KO return

yards against Wake Forest were the most in a game for FSU since also having 133 on six returns at Louisville in 2016.

BURNS NOW WITH THREE CAREER BLOCKED PUNTS » Brian Burns blocked his third career punt against Miami. Burns’ two blocks this season (first vs.

NC State) are tied for the national lead. Burns’ first blocked punt was at Syracuse last season. » Florida State has now blocked 143 punts in the history of the program with four (three by Burns,

one by Chris Thompson) coming during the Jimbo Fisher era (since the start of the 2010 season). » The Seminoles have blocked 10 kicks (five PAT’s, four punts and one field goal) under head coach

Jimbo Fisher. DEFENDERS EXCEL ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL » Tarvarus McFadden, who won the 2016 Jack Tatum Award as the nation’s top defensive back,

returned the first three punts of his career for 25 yards (8.3 ypr) against NC State. His 15-yarder was FSU’s longest since an 18-yarder by Bobo Wilson last season against USF.

» McFadden is FSU’s leader in punt returns (10), punt return yards (48) and pass break-ups (five). » Derwin James, who has a team-leading 37 tackles, has returned four kickoffs (49 vs. NC State, 36

vs. Wake Forest, 13 vs. Duke, 20 against Louisville). He averages a team-leading 6.2 tackles per game and a team-leading 29.5 yards per kickoff return.

TYLER PUNTING WELL » Logan Tyler, who was added to the Ray Guy Award watch list, boomed his career-long punt of 61

yards, as well as a 51- and 52-yarder, at Duke. » He has totaled 10 punts of 50 yards or more in 2017, all in the past five games. He totaled seven

punts of 50 yards or more in 13 games as a freshman in 2016. » He has landed 12 punts inside the 20-yard line, one more than he totaled on 54 punts in 2016. » On kickoffs, Tyler is averaging 64.2 yards. 20 of his 29 kickoffs (.690) have been touchbacks. FSU is

second in the ACC in kickoff average (64.2) and net average (59.5).

TOP 5 UNDER FISHER

RED ZONE PRODUCTION CONTINUES » Florida State’s offense was perfect in red zone scoring opportunities for the fourth consecutive

week against Louisville, converting all three visits into touchdowns – a first this season for the Noles – who posted a season-high 28 points.

» FSU has converted 16 consecutive red zone opportunities, dating to the second quarter of the Sept. 23 NC State game and is 18-of-20 on opportunities this season.

» The Noles 90-percent success rate ranks 29th nationally. » In eight seasons under Jimbo Fisher the Noles are rarely denied points when entering the red zone.

FSU has converted 404-of-442 for a stunning .914 success rate, which leads all schools nationally over that time.

» FSU’s touchdown productivity against Louisville evened their season red zone conversion break-down to nine field touchdowns and nine field goals.

» Over the course of Fisher’s career as head coach, 71 percent (287-of-404) of FSU’s red zone conver-sions have been touchdowns.

NOLES EXTEND ROAD WIN STREAK » FSU's 17-10 win against Duke at Wallace Wade Stadium on Oct. 14 in Durham was FSU's sixth con-

secutive win in a true road game. » Since a loss in last year's road opener at Louisville, Florida State has won at USF, at Miami, at NC

State and at Syracuse in 2016 and has beaten Wake Forest and Duke in 2017. » Only Oklahoma (14) and Alabama (13) have a longer active road win streak than FSU.

WINNING POSSESSION BATTLE GIVING NOLES A CHANCE » For the fourth consecutive week Florida State held a time of possession advantage, with a

31:10-28:50 lead over Louisville in its 31-28 loss. » The Seminoles were on the short end of possession time in each of their first two games, losses

to Alabama and NC State. » Since then they have won the 60-minute battles against Wake Forest (34:41), Miami (34:59),

Duke (36:44) and Louisville. » FSU won two of those games (Wake Forest and Duke) and led or were tied in last-second losses

to Miami and Louisville.

NEW GUYS IN THE MIX » Ten true freshmen, two redshirt freshmen and one JUCO transfer have played for Florida State. » In the opener against Alabama, true freshmen running back Cam Akers, quarterback James Black-

man, defensive end Joshua Kaindoh, defensive backs Hamsah Nasirildeen and Stanford Samuels III and linebacker Leonard Warner saw action for the first time. Redshirt freshmen offensive lineman Josh Ball and defensive end Janarius Robinson also played.

» Against NC State in the home opener, Blackman made the start at quarterback (FSU’s first true freshman starting QB since 1985) while defensive tackle Marvin Wilson played in the second half. Tight end Tre’ McKitty appeared on special teams and redshirt sophomore Adonis Thomas, a JUCO transfer, played a number of snaps in place of injured linebacker Matthew Thomas.

» D.J. Matthews saw his first action on a punt return at Wake Forest. Against Louisville, Cyrus Fagan made his first career appearance on special teams.

NOLES STAY PERFECT AT DUKE » FSU's 17-10 win at Duke on Oct. 14 pushed FSU's all-time record against the Blue Devils to 20-0, the
