TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) —
Jordan Travis wasn’t sharp at times, but he still completed 23 of 38 passes for a career-best 396 yards and three touchdowns as Florida State defeated Georgia Tech 41-16 on Saturday.
Travis connected with Johnny Wilson on a 78-yard TD, Lawrance Toafili on a 62-yard TD and Ja’Khi Douglas on a 24-yard TD as the Seminoles (5-3, 3-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) stopped a three-game losing streak.
Trey Benson rushed 18 times for 111 yards and Toafili had 13 carries for 70 yards as the Seminoles rolled up 246 rushing yards, averaging 5.7 yards per carry.
Freshman Zach Pyron completed 18 of 28 passes for 198 yards as well as a TD pass and a TD run for Georgia Tech (3-5, 2-3). Pyron has taken most of the snaps as he filled in for Jeff Sims, who left last week’s game against Virginia with an injury.
Travis completed passes to 10 receivers. Wilson caught three passes for 111 yards and Toafili caught five passes for 84 yards.
TO TAKE AWAY
Georgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets had just 24 yards on 24 plays in the first half and couldn’t recover while playing a pair of backups.
Florida State: The Seminoles topped the 200-yard mark in rushing for the third straight game and took control of the game after a sloppy first quarter.
