What are the key match ups and/or key players in this game. I think the obvious are Offensive Line vs Defensive Line for both sides. How well will FSU's OLine hold up to keep Francois off the turf and opening holes for the Cookless backfield, and how well will FSU's DLine be able to minimize rushing yards and get into the backfield. James/McFadden or whoever is matched up with Ridley is important. He's obviously their #1 receiver and very explosive and FSU must keep him covered. I think FSU's secondary will be a good job of covering everyone else. FSU hardly used Izzo this past season, especially compared to how O'Leary was used in 2013. If they can use Izzo more, he could be a big threat. Everyone is excited about the potential at WR, hopefully they can meet or exceed expectations. Alabama is so talented and so well coached at every position, even their "weakness" is still very good.
