Florida State opened up the second half of its 2024 campaign with a 23-16 defeat to the Duke Blue Devils. Through seven games, the Seminoles sit at 1-6 and are just one loss away from being eliminated from bowl contention.

Just when Florida State football (1-6, 1-5 ACC) took one step forward and three steps back. In a Friday night ACC showdown, the Seminoles lost to the now 6-1 Duke Blue Devils, 23-16. This snapped the Seminoles' 22-game winning streak against Duke, and FSU remains a one-win team.

Chandler Rivers scored on an interception return, Todd Pelino kicked three field goals and Duke beat Florida State for the first time in 23 all-time meetings, winning 23-16 on Friday night.
