WATCH LIVE: FSU Press Conference

Via Tom Liscio:

Jimbo opens with talking about overcoming adversity and overcoming sloppy plays to comeback against a tough Clemson Team. He looks forward to a USF team that is big and talented and lots of talented backs in the special teams.

Via Tom Liscio:

Fisher felt in spring he could tell that this team has a great ability to run the ball.

I asked about Chris Casher --

Jimbo said he tweaked his knee in warmups and has some cartilage that will need cleaned up. He is likely to redshirt.

Via Tom Liscio:

Jimbo talks about Hopkins missing two field goals and just says he kicked it off the wrong place in his foot. Compares it to golfing, "some guys go out and shoot a 60 one day and a 74 the next. Some people hit it the right way from 8 feet and miss it from two and those are just the tweaks that need to be made."

Jimbo said earlier that he wouldn't change what Manuel did on Saturday, but today he would say that he would change some options with the run and some of the passing miscues.

James Wilder Jr. was highly recruited as a running back but FSU has believed since day one that they could make him one of the best running backs in the country.

Via Tom Liscio:

Jimbo says that EJ is becoming more mature in letting plays develop and seeing receivers

The backs and receivers get a lot of credit, along with the offensive line.

The special teams and defense made a couple of penalties that could've cost them the game, but with Joyner's return to set up a touchdown and a team that could fight back help win the game.

On EJ's Heisman potential:

"The Heisman is a popularity contest: do you want a show dog or a hunting dog?"

Bjoern played a really good game, according to Jimbo. Didn't have huge numbers but was alway in position to make plays.

Menelik Watson was given credit to taking the reigns of the offense line and doing extremely well after playing only 2 games.

EJ on BJ Daniels:

"He's a great quarterback, very athletic, can throw the ball a mile."

Team has definitely come a long way since the last time they played USF, losing at home.

EJ said that being able to run -- as opposed to last year -- is a big luxury. Poses a great threat to opposing defenses.
