After heading to the locker room with an arm/shoulder injury, Jordan Travis is back at quarterback for Florida State.

The FSU quarterback seemed to suffer the injury on the Seminoles' first possession when he was sacked on third down. He immediately signaled to let the sideline know he was hurt and went into FSU's injury tent.

He returned to the sideline and took the field with the offense, moving the ball 40 yards out past midfield on a variety of passes and carries, but had to leave the game and head to the locker room after six plays of the drive.

McKenzie Milton replaced Travis at quarterback and saw the snap go over his head for a big loss on his first play after he entered. This resulted in FSU's drive dying out and led to a punt. He threw an interception on the ensuing series and redshirt freshman Tate Rodemaker couldn't do anything either on the third drive after Travis left.

Travis has been the Seminoles' answer at quarterback during the back half of the season, amassing 13 touchdowns and no turnovers over the last five games entering Saturday's game.
