Watch for: An angry group of Seminoles, who haven't forgotten a 30-0 loss to Wake last year at Tallahassee. "That's the only real bad lickin' we took last year," coach Bobby Bowden said. "They just blew us out quickly, and a lot of it was self-destruction. They're an opportunistic team that just dares you to make an error." Specifically, expect Florida State to throw balls up for grabs to Greg Carr, a 6-foot-6 WR. Duke's Eron Riley had similar success last week in Wake's 41-36 victory over the Blue Devils, and don't think the FSU staff failed to notice. It's a game of endurance against these Seminoles, who have overwhelmed teams in the fourth quarter. If they had finished a comeback bid at Clemson in the opener, they would be ranked in the top five. So it's dangerous to assume the Noles have faded into irrelevance. The Deacons probably will alternate Josh Adams and Micah Andrews at TB, and they need somebody to emerge as a complementary presence for WR Kenny Moore, whom Bowden compared to Peter Warrick this week.
