Tonight at 8:00 p.m. ET the No. 3 Florida State Seminoles (9-0, 6-0) will head to Sun Life Stadium in Miami to face the Hurricanes (6-3, 3-2) in a rivalry game that may cost them a College Football Playoff berth if they take it lightly.

The Hurricanes have a true freshman quarterback named Brad Kaaya who is making people notice him. He's thrown 20 touchdowns and nine interceptions this season and has completed nearly 62 percent of his attempts. He won't be the main topic of conversation tonight though, because he'll be staring across the field at the reigning Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston.
"He always finds a way to win," Kaaya said regarding Winston, who hasn't lost a game in his college career. "And he's also really good at tuning out all the outside noise, no matter what's going on. He doesn't let anything from the outside affect him."
FSU head coach Jimbo Fisher isn't overlooking the young Kaaya though. "I know he is playing very well and he is a very talented guy," Fisher said.
"I know the offense that he is in. James carries a lot of things that we do plus some other things he does. He has to be a very cerebral guy and a very mental guy to be where he is at right and having the success. He obviously has tremendous upside."
Miami's defense has actually been slightly stingier than Florida State's in 2014, so the QB battle could be the difference in the outcome, and FSU's chances to repeat as champs.
