Seminoles on the ropes, Hokies' streak in jeopardy too

Published

Florida State isn't the only team in danger of losing a long bowl streak this season.

The Seminoles' 36-year run is in jeopardy — Florida State needs to beat Boston College and Florida to get to 6-6 and secure bowl eligibility. Meanwhile, ACC rival Virginia Tech is in a tough spot as well. The Hokies, who are trying to extend their bowl streak to 26 seasons, are 4-5 with games against Miami and Virginia left on the schedule.

Virginia Tech's matchup with East Carolina on Sept. 15 was cancelled because of Hurricane Florence. Last season, Florida State's game against Louisiana-Monroe was called off because of Hurricane Irma, but it was rescheduled for the first week of December, enabling the Seminoles to reach six wins .
