2. Jordan Travis proved he can win doing it his way

Jordan Travis is no Jameis Winston nor is he EJ Manuel but he may have a little Charlie Ward in him.

The 6-foot-1, 200-pound sophomore combined for 282 yards and three touchdowns. Travis has run for at least 80 yards in every game he’s played in this season except one. That combined with the fact that’s he’s FSU’s leading rusher on the season with 559 yards and seven touchdowns.

Travis ran for a 27-yard touchdown right after halftime against Duke on Saturday. That play was a huge momentum shift in the game.

If Jordan Travis can cut down on the turnovers and continue to improved on his accuracy, he should be the front runner to be the starting quarterback for FSU next year.
