2012 SEASON RECAPS & BOX SCORES Game 1, Sept. 1 (7/7) Florida State 69, murray state 3 tallahassee, FLA.

Game 2, Sept. 8 (6/6) Florida State 55, Savannah State 0 tallahassee, FLA.

• Leading the charge in the season-opening win over FCS opponent Murray State was defensive end Bjoern Werner. The German-born pass rusher set career highs in tackles for loss (five) and sacks (four). • Florida State rushed for 285 yards on 42 carries. • Sophomore running back James Wilder, Jr. earned the team’s game ball for his twotouchdown, 106-yards on just 12 carries performance. • Senior running back Chris Thompson officially returned from the broken back he sustained last year and racked up 32 yards on six carries while getting the start. • Sophomore running back Devonta Freeman rattled off 64 yards on 10 carries and fullbacks Lonnie Pryor and Debrale Smiley combined for five rushing scores, as FSU scored seven times on the ground for just the third time in school history. • Quarterback EJ Manuel connected on 16 of his 22 pass attempts for 188 yards and one touchdown to help balance out the offense and Clint Trickett added 117 yards in back-up duty in the second half. • Kenny Shaw grabbed four passes for 82 yards and one score and Kelvin Benjamin and Rashad Greene combined for 92 yards receiving. • Greene also added a punt return for a touchdown -- the team’s first score of the year and Greene’s first such score of his career. • Senior defensive end Brandon Jenkins missed all of the second half with a foot contusion but his backup and classmate, Cornellius Carradine, stepped in and finished the night with a team-high nine tackles to go along with one sack and two tackles for loss.

• Florida State scored eight touchdowns on nine drives, racked up 413 yards of total offense, averaged 9.4 yards per play, registered 20 first downs and held Savannah State to just 28 yards of total offense as the game was ruled over with 8:59 still to play in third quarter following two severe weather delays. • Prior to the final ruling, both teams had waited through a 56-minute weather delay before halftime and had agreed to a running clock for the remainder of the contest. • Quarterback EJ Manuel played only the opening quarter for the Seminoles, connecting on 11 of his 13 pass attempts for three touchdowns and 161 yards. His backup Clint Trickett passed for 66 yards. • Redshirt freshman wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin scored the first two touchdowns of his career and sophomore running back James Wilder, Jr. scored a pair of TDs on the ground for the second consecutive game. • The Seminoles bolted to a 35-0 lead in the first quarter. • Senior Rodney Smith started the onslaught with his career-long 61-yard touchdown catch on the second play of the game. Junior Greg Dent also added an eight-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter. • FSU allowed Savannah State to complete just two of 15 pass attempts and produce just 1.1 yards per rush. The Tigers averaged just 0.8 yards per play. • Sophomore Karlos Williams tallied a team-best three tackles, while junior Christian Jones recorded a pair of TFLs.

2012 SEASON RECAPS & BOX SCORES Game 9, o t. 27 (11/10/12) Florida State 48, Du e 7 tallahassee, Fla.

Game 10, NOV. 8 (8/6/10) Florida State 28, VIRGINIA TECH 22 BLACKSBURG, Va.

• Florida State moved to 18-0 all time against the Blue Devils (6-3, 3-2) with a 48-7 victory thanks to an offense that exploded for 560 yards and a defense that allowed just 232. • EJ Manuel averaged a little more than 35 yards per completion as his 8-of-16 night resulted in 282 yards and two touchdowns -- one to Rashad Greene and another to Kelvin Benjamin. Rodney Smith finished with a season-best 112 yards and Benjamin had 77. • James Wilder, Jr. earned his first career start and carried the ball 13 times for 70 yards and a score while Freeman ran 12 times for 104 yards and two touchdowns. The latter averaged a staggering 8.7 yards per carry en route to becoming the fourth different FSU player this season to hit the century mark in rushing yards (Wilder, Jr., Lonnie Pryor and Chris Thompson were the others). • FSU finished the night with 261 yards -- the sixth time this year that the ‘Noles have run for at least 200 in a game after accomplishing that feat just twice last year. • While FSU’s offense was racking up big yards, the defense was preventing Duke from doing much of the same. The Blue Devils entered the game with the ACC’s second most potent passing attack with an average of nearly 290 yards through the air each game, but finished with just 129 yards through the air. • Defensive end Cornellius Carradine had a career-high four quarterback hurries and linebacker Christian Jones had a game-high 11 tackles, including three for loss in the first quarter. • Sophomore Tyler Hunter took his third career punt return to the end zone for a 75 yard score in the first quarter, while senior kicker Dustin Hopkins set the ACC’s alltime field goal record as his 81st sailed a career-long 56 yards in the fourth quarter. • Sophomore wide receiver Rashad Greene hauled in a 71-yard touchdown pass from Manuel to get the scoring going just under four minutes into the contest.

• Florida State moved to 9-1 for the first time since the 2000 season with a 28-22 come-from-behind victory over Virginia Tech at a hostile Lane Stadium in Blacksburg, Va. • With the Seminoles trailing 22-20, senior quarterback EJ Manuel got the ball with 2:19 left in the game an engineered the game-winning drive, finding sophomore receiver Rashad Greene for a touchdown on a slant pass that Greene took 39 yards for the score with 40 seconds left to play. It was Manuels third touchdown pass and second to Greene. Manuel found sophomore tight end Nick O’Leary for the ensuing two-point conversion to put FSU ahead by 6. • Sophomore nickel back Tyler Hunter nabbed his second interception of the game a few plays later off a Logan Thomas pass with 27 seconds left to seal the victory. • The Hokies held the Seminoles to just -15 yards rushing (fourth-worst in FSU history) and sacked Manuel five times, but the senior signal-caller passed for 326 yards on 25-of-42 passing. • Four plays before the game-winning score, James Wilder, Jr., ran for seven yards on a critical fourth-and-one conversion – FSU’s first fourth down conversion of the year. • Senior defensive end Cornellius Carradine had a game-high 11 tackles and one sack, while junior linebacker Christian Jones added nine stops. • Virginia Tech went ahead 22-20 on Cody Journell’s 21-yard field goal with 2:19 remaining in the game. • Senior kicker Dustin Hopkins drilled a pair of field goals and finished with eight points, leaving him just three points shy of setting the all-time NCAA record for kicker scoring. • The Seminoles led 13-10 at halftime after Manuel found Greene for the first time with 48 seconds remaining in the first half.

2012 SEASON RECAPS & BOX SCORES Game 11, NOV. 17 (10/6/10) Florida State 41, MARYLAND 14 COLLEGE PARK, MD.

Game 12, NOV. 22 (6/6/4) Florida 37, (10/5/10) Florida State 26 Tallahassee, FLA.

• Florida State moved to 10-1 for the first time since the 2000 season and reached the 10-win mark in the regular season for the first time since 2003. • The win clinched the Atlantic Division title of the ACC for FSU for the second time in Jimbo Fisher’s three seasons at the helm. • Florida State will play in the ACC title game with the win for the third time in school history (2005, 2010, 2012). • The Seminoles stormed out to a 27-0 lead after scoring 20 points in the first 15:09 of the game. • Senior placekicker Dustin Hopkins’ 26-yard field goal at the 14:51 mark of the second quarter gave Hopkins the record as the NCAA FBS all-time scorer as a kicker. Hopkins surpassed Boise State’s Kyle Brotzman (2007-10) who held the previous record with 439 points. With 11 points in the game, including nine points in the first half, Hopkins now stands at 448 career points, which is fourth all-time for scoring in the FBS among all players. • The Seminoles rushed for 237 yards against a Maryland defense that entered the game with a top 20 ranked rush defense. • Devonta Freeman finished the day with a career-best 148 yards on 16 carries with two touchdowns for his fifth multi-score game in two seasons. • After completing 17-of-23 passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns, redshirt senior quarterback EJ Manuel moved up to fifth all-time in career completions (540) passing Danny Kannell (529) and ties for seventh all-time in career touchdown passes (45) with Christian Ponder. • Bjoern Werner continued wrecking havoc in the backfield when he picked up his ninth sack of the season to end Maryland’s first drive of the game. After half a sack in the second half, Werner has 33 tackles on the season, 14.5 coming for loss and 9.5 in sacks.

• Florida State lost to an in-state rival (Florida or Miami) for the first time since Jimbo Fisher took over the program and it was 1,091 days since FSU last lost to a team from the state of Florida. • Bjoern Werner had one of the most impressive games of his career registering 3.5 sacks, a fumble return and a career-high tying 6 tackles. • Tank Carradine led the Seminoles with 11 tackles on Saturday marking the fourth time that he has led the team in tackles this year. Carradine’s 11 tackles tied a career high set earlier this year at Virginia Tech. • Senior placekicker Dustin Hopkins connected on two PATs and his second 50-yard FG of the game in the third quarter moving the senior kicker into sole possession of third place on the all-time NCAA FBS all-player scoring record with 456 points. • Hopkins was the first Seminole to register two field goals of 50 yards or more in a single game (50 and 53) since 1985 when Derek Schmidt connected on two 51-yard field goals against Memphis. Hopkins now has nine FGs of 50 yards or more giving him the school record for the most career FGs from that distance and beyond surpassing Derek Schmidt, who tallied seven from 1984-87. • Senior wideout Rodney Smith made it 37 consecutive games with a catch as he was on the receiving end of a 4-yard catch with less than a minute left in the second quarter. E.G. Green (1994-97) has the school record for most consecutive games with a reception at 38. • Nick O’Leary was on the receiving end of Florida State’s first touchdown of the game as the sophomore tight end made a tremendous leaping catch for a six-yard TD catch on third down and goal. • Florida State quarterback EJ Manuel gave the Seminoles their first lead of the game in the third quarter scoring from 1-yard out to give FSU a 17-13 advantage. He then added a 22-yard rushing score on the last play of the game. It was Manuel’s 10th career rushing TD and third in 2012.

2012 SEASON RECAPS & BOX SCORES Game 13, Dec. 1 ACC Championship game (13/12/13) Florida State 21, Georgia Tech 15 charlotte, n.c. • Florida State won its 13th ACC Championship which trails only Clemson (14) for the most in conference history. The Seminoles are now 2-1 all-time in the ACC Championship Game. • Florida State advances to its ninth Orange Bowl. The Seminoles are 3-5 all-time in the Orange Bowl. This is also the seventh time FSU will play in a BCS Bowl. The last time FSU went to a BCS Bowl was the 2006 Orange Bowl, where it fell to Penn State, 26-23 (3 OT). • Led by sophomore running back James Wilder, Jr.’s 69-yard, two-touchdown MVP performance versus the Yellow Jackets, FSU notched 11 wins in a season for the 12th time in school history and the first time since 2000. • Florida State tallied 194 yards rushing compared to Georgia Tech’s 183 yards on the ground. The Yellow Jackets came into the game third in the NCAA in rushing at 323.3 yards/game. • Sophomore running back Devonta Freeman added 59 yards on the ground and a first quarter score, while quarterback EJ Manuel added 49 rushing yards. • After Freeman scored in the first quarter to put FSU ahead 7-0, Wilder tallied two rushing touchdowns in the second frame as Florida State took a 21-6 lead into halftime. • Sophomore safety Karlos Williams filled in at linebacker for Nick Moody, who was injured on the game’s first play. Williams had a career-best 11 tackles and made a game-sealing interception in the fourth quarter after the Yellow Jackets had cut the FSU lead to 21-15. • Junior linebacker Telvin Smith had a career-best matching 11 stops, while sophomore defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan tallied a career-high nine tackles. • Senior kicker Dustin Hopkins kicked three extra points and set a new ACC record for scoring in a season, breaking former Virginia Tech running back Ryan Williams’ mark of 132 set in 2009.

ACC Preseason Predictions • The Seminoles have been picked to win the ACC Championship for the 16th time in 21 years in the conference. The league’s media are predicting a rematch of the inaugural ACC Dr. Pepper Championship game as Virginia Tech and FSU were tabbed to win the Coastal and Atlantic Divisions for the fourth straight year and sixth time in the last eight years. The media is picking the same outcome as well as FSU defeating Virginia Tech led all scenarios with 60 votes in the media poll. • The last time the Seminoles were picked to win the conference crown was 2011 and the last time before that was 2005. In 2005 FSU did just that winning the league’s first-ever ACC Championship game in Jacksonville, Fla. For the first 14 years Florida State was in the ACC, the Seminoles were picked to win the conference title each and every one of those seasons. Twelve times during that span FSU either won or shared the conference title. The only exceptions were in 2001 and 2004.in the ACC, the Seminoles were picked to win the conference title each and every one of those seasons
