Wake upsets FSU

Florida State University has recently been bringing in some talent to their football club. They have been taking the talent away from other big schools in Florida such as University of Miami and University of Florida. With all this talent they are bringing in, it is not hard to see that they should be ranked in the top 25 in the nation.
FSU had no idea what Wake Forests quarterback Riley Skinner had up his sleeve. Skinner threw 19 of 27 for 215 yards and two touchdowns. The game was close until the fourth quarter came along. Skinner threw a 35 yard bomb to receiver Kenneth Moore to put Wake Forest up on FSU 24-21.
This could pose to be a problem for FSU. If FSU cannot beat an unranked team, which to be honest, doesn't have much talent at all, they are going to have problems with bowl games. I think FSU's quarter back Xavier Lee did not perform to his capabilities after throwing an interception right after Wake Forest scored in the fourth quarter. For a quarterback to lose his nerves in a game that FSU is supposed to win is ridiculous. He should have kept his cool and moved the ball down field without making mistakes. His mistakes cost FSU the game which potentially could put them in a losing streak and could take them out of a bowl game.
