Good morning from Doak Campbell Stadium. It's a beautiful day for some football. Little cool out, but I think it's gonna be around 80 later.
A bunch of Louisville players are already out warming up by 10:15. Everett Golson is the only 'Nole I see down there. He's just throwing some passes with a couple GAs and Trey Fisher. I've noticed Everett coming out earlier the last few games. Other guys should be out soon.
And just as I posted that, I see Deondre Francois is down there throwing now too.
10:40 a.m. -- Interesting to see the difference in the two teams' warmups. Bunch of Louisville guys were out here early, now they're all back in the locker room. FSU's guys are still filtering in. Mostly special-teams guys and a few skill guys. ... As expected, this will be a late-arriving student crowd. Maybe about 100 students here right now. Will be interesting to see what the crowd looks like at kickoff.
10:55 a.m. -- FSU wearing the traditional gold pants and garnet jerseys. Haven't seen Louisville's uniforms yet. ... As expected, Terrance Smith is out. He's in warmup pants just talking to players.
11 a.m. -- Bunch more FSU players are out now. QBs are warming up with centers. No changes there ... Hoefeld with Golson, Eberle with Maguire and Martinez with Cosentino. ... Roberto Aguayo just booted a 55-yarder in warmups. Looked like he missed left on a 60-yarder. (He has not been accosted yet by any opposing players!)
11:05 a.m. -- Jameis is down on the field now. He's wearing a black FSU jersey with a gold No. 4 on it. He's tossing passes on the sideline to Ethan Fisher.
11:10 a.m. -- Louisville wearing all white uniforms and white helmets with silver Cardinals on them. ... All of FSU's skill guys are out there now, catching passes from the QBs. ... Jameis is now chatting with Jimbo and Trey Fisher.
11:20 a.m. -- Full FSU team out now going through warmups. Still not much of a crowd from the students. Like less than a thousand. Just a few fans in the stands at all. Early kickoffs are great.
11:25 a.m. -- Good news on the injury front. Kareem Are is dressed. Looks like Mavety still in the starting lineup though, based on warmups.
11:40 a.m. -- Going through final warmups now ... looks like starting lineups are same as last week. And that's about it for pregame. Marching Chiefs coming down for pregame show. Still a sparse crowd. Less than half-full. Couple thousand students. Will see if folks show up around kickoff, but not looking promising. ... OK, see ya in the blog.
