12 takeaways from Week 1 of 2015 NCAA football season

The Everett Golson era at FSU looks promising

Everett Golson

Golson has a new lease on life after transferring from Notre Dame four months ago, and after Week 1 it’s clear he is taking full advantage of the opportunity.

The Seminoles took down the Bobcats with ease on Saturday night at home, winning 59-16. Golson shined in his debut with Florida State before finally being replaced by Sean McGuire when the game was out of hand late in the fourth quarter. He completed 19 of 25 passes for 302 yards (12.1 yards per attempt) with four touchdowns and zero interceptions.

Impressively, all four touchdown passes went to different receivers, as Golson showed off his vision and accuracy throughout the evening in Tallahassee.

Nobody will mistake Texas State for Clemson, so while Golson’s performance was impressive, it remains to be seen how he will perform under more difficult circumstances for FSU.
