Florida State Defeats Charleston Southern 41-7

Florida State Seminoles ended their six-game losing streak with a decisive 41-7 victory over Charleston Southern, led by true freshman quarterback Luke Kromenhoek, who threw for 209 yards and three touchdowns in his first college start. The Seminoles, who had been struggling with the nation's lowest scoring offense, produced a season-high 415 offensive yards, including 176 rushing yards. Despite injuries and recent firings of key coaching staff, FSU managed to dominate the game, scoring 17 points in the second quarter and 14 in the third. Charleston Southern could not sustain drives, managing only 57 rushing yards and one touchdown pass from quarterback Kaleb Jackson. This marked a significant turnaround for a team that had not won since September 21, emphasizing their potential for recovery after a dismal 1-9 season. The victory also highlighted the team's resilience amid ongoing challenges and injuries.
