FLORIDA STATE GETTING A MAKEOVER: After an opening weekend apparel debacle against Oklahoma State, the top-ranked Seminoles will reportedly return to metallic gold helmets and true garnet jersey numbers according to ESPN Radio’s Jeff Cameron.

Florida State was stuck in its off-color Nike look for Saturday’s home opener against The Citadel.
