INJURY REPORT

FLORIDA STATE: Senior receiver/punt returner Willie Reid twisted his right knee when hit by Devin Hester while trying to field a punt. He could be out a couple weeks, at least, coach Bobby Bowden said.

MIAMI: Three key players had to leave the game: defensive tackle Baraka Atkins (knee sprain), safety Anthony Reddick (knee sprain), linebacker Tavares Gooden (shoulder).

"At our kickoff luncheon, I talked about what it would take to have the kind of year you want to have. One of them is, something's got to happen you can't explain; something's got to happen you can't coach."

9: True freshmen who played Monday for the Seminoles - DE Everette Brown, DT Emmanuel Dunbar, DT Letroy Guion, LB Geno Hayes, DE Neefy Moffett, LB Derek Nicholson, WR Rod Owens, WR Fred Rouse and RB/KR Antone Smith.
