It was FSU's Greg Reid, not Clemson's C.J. Spiller, who had the impressive return to start this game. Spiller was stopped at his own 25-yard line on the opening kickoff, but Reid took off for 42 yards to give the Noles great field position to start, and it's paying off right now as FSU is driving on the Tigers.
So far, FSU is trying to get things started with its running game. Ponder has run twice now, and that's going to open things up for the passing game. FSU looked good running the ball last week against NC State, but they've not had a strong ground game against the better defenses. Right now, they're moving it on the Tigers, thanks in large part to good field position to begin with.
