The victory also stamped FSU’s third consecutive victory against the Hurricanes. Coincidentally, this was the third straight season that Heisman contender Jordan Travis has been under center against a team that he has no love lost for.

“I think when you see what Jordan Travis has meant to this program, and especially the path that he’s been on, you know, there has been ups and downs,” FSU head coach Mike Norvell said about Travis. “He’s had to work, he’s had to believe, he’s had to grow throughout it, and he is a tremendous leader. For him to finish up as a starting quarterback 3-0 against those guys, it’s big. You know, I’m so proud of him.

Travis accounted for over 750 yards of offense, six touchdowns, and just one interception during those three games and will leave another stamp on the Florida State record books. Travis recently passed Chris Rix for No. 2 on FSU’s career passing yards list and now has 8,622 yards as a Seminole after Saturday’s win. He’s also led the team to back-to-back 10-win seasons and their first ACC Championship Game in nearly a decade.

“I love winning football games at the end of the day. That’s the goal every week. Obviously going against Miami it’s a little bit different. Feeling is a little bit different. Emotions are a little bit different,” Travis said. “Yeah, like Kalen said, it’s my last year, too, so I mean, I love — I’m so happy I’m going out with a win against them boys. I’m not a fan of them at all. Yeah, very thankful.
