Winners and losers from Florida State’s loss to Alabama

Florida State had opportunities to change the direction of its season Saturday afternoon. Instead, another road trip ended with a familiar result.

The Seminoles fell 50-36 to No. 10 Alabama Crimson Tide at Bryant-Denny Stadium, dropping to 1-2 after losing consecutive games to SMU and the Crimson Tide. FSU led 21-6 during the second quarter and briefly regained a 28-26 advantage early in the third, but Alabama eventually took control behind 568 yards of offense and a turnover-free performance.
