TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Freshman quarterback Jameis Winston, Florida State's youthful Heisman Trophy hopeful, never had a shaky start in his brief college career prior to Saturday's showdown against bitter rival Miami -- and he didn't know how to handle it. Winston got a pep-talk at halftime and overcame two first-half interceptions to play mistake-free football after intermission, leading the No. 3 Seminoles in a rout of No. 7 Miami on Saturday night, 41-14, in a battle of Top-10 unbeatens. "It's like baseball," Winston, FSU's two-sport star, said. The in-state foes once played seven consecutive times between 1987 and 2004 with both programs being ranked in the Top 10 -- and the Hurricanes owned the Seminoles in most of those big games.
