TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Florida State football scrimmaged Tuesday for the first time this fall camp, competing in extended 11-on-11 work at Doak Campbell Stadium.
"It's fast football now," senior running back Karlos Williams said. "Coach is not standing behind you telling you what to do, giving you pointers, tips and stuff like that. You're pretty much on your own playing fast, free football, just like you would be in a game."
After the practice, head coach Jimbo Fisher said he liked the competition his team showed.
"A lotta guys played at different spots, different positions," said Fisher. "We were able to get the ball to them, see them cover and rush and do different things, so for our first scrimmage, I'm pretty pleased where we're at.
"I thought both sides at times flashed. (It was) pretty consistent on offense for the most part for an early scrimmage. We were able to run the ball and some things - (do) some formations and different things that we haven't done. I was very pleased with that. The defense at times, did a good job on third down - red zone. It went back and forth. (We played) a lot of 1-on-1's on the day. Some 1-on-2's, 2-on-1's, but it was a good mix of both. So we had competition."
The Noles get their first day off of fall camp Wednesday, following 10 days in a row of practice.
