No. 3 Oklahoma | No. 5 LSU | Top 25No. 3: Florida StateLast Season: 10-3 (6-2 ACC Atlantic)A status quo worth maintainingLooking for cute tweets of Jimbo Fisher climbing trees in recruits yards? Dont bother. Been Googling FSU satellite camp tour? Forget it. I dont have any problem with any coach who feels like they need to do that stuff, says Fisher, in his seventh season at the tip of the flaming spear. I just dont think we need to. Our approach has worked pretty well so far. So well that its 10 wins in 2015-the teams fewest since 2011-felt like a huge letdown. The same hefty questions from a year ago still exist: Who will be the quarterback (senior Sean Maguire, who passed for just 1,520 yards last season, or one of two four-star freshman dual threats, Deondre Francois or Malik Henry)? And can any of them beat Clemson? Of course, solving both problems will be much easier if Heisman hopeful Dalvin Cook, who ran for 1,691 yards and 19 touchdowns as a sophomore last season, maintains his torrid pace. --Ryan McGeeLast year FSU had the least experienced team in the entire FBS but still went 10-3 and nearly won in Death Valley. Add the fact that the Noles have averaged the third-best recruiting class over the past five years and that Fisher has a reputation as one of the best coaches at talent development and thats quite a combination. Along with Cook (1,935 scrimmage yards), they have my No. 6-ranked WR corps and a top-three O-line. And on defense, FSU has my ninth-rated D-line, No. 12 LBs and No. 21 secondary. While the Noles face my 14th-toughest schedule, I have them favored in every contest, with the closest games being Clemson (-3), at Louisville (-3) and at Miami (-4). You heard it here first: FSU is my favorite to win this years national title.IN IF... QB play is an asset. The wealth of talent surrounding the signal-caller -- whether its Maguire, Francois or Henry -- will help shoulder the load, but the Noles must improve on last years middle-of-the-pack ACC QBR (66.0) to get over the playoff hump.OUT IF... FSU falls to Clemson at home. The Tigers are too talented (FPI rank: 5) and their schedule too light (FPI: 36) to hope for two conference losses elsewhere.FSUs chances to win each game 09.05 vs. Ole Miss (Orlando): 70.5% 09.10 vs. Charleston Southern: ?99.7% 09.17 @ Louisville: 71.5% 09.24 @ South Florida: ?89.4% 10.01 vs. North Carolina: 85.7% 10.08 @ Miami: 81.6%% 10.15 vs. Wake Forest: ?96.2% 10.29 vs. Clemson: 63.5% 11.05 @ NC State: 87.6% 11.11 vs. Boston College: 95.5% 11.19 @ Syracuse: 92.2% 11.26 @ Florida: 85.6%No matter the quarterback, running back Dalvin Cook makes the Florida State offense fearsome. Pair that group with what looks to be one of the best defenses in the country, and the Seminoles should go 11-1 with a shot at a playoff spot.?-- Andrea AdelsonThere is simply no letting up in Tallahassee, where ballyhooed recruiting classes are there to replenish the program at even the slightest hint of a letup. Deondre Francois may not be Jameis Winston 2.0, but he wont need to be on a roster good enough to navigate a tough schedule and go 11-1, giving the Noles a shot at a playoff berth. -- Matt FortunaQuarterbacks get all the hype, and Florida State doesnt have a definite answer there. The rest of the roster though? Look out. The Seminoles are as deep and talented as any team in the country, and even at 11-1, they could be a factor in the playoff discussion.?-- David HaleTalent and experience around the quarterback should ease the transition for whomever Jimbo Fisher picks. Schedule strength and an 11-1 record puts them in the playoff.?-- Jared ShankerNo. 3 Oklahoma | No. 5 LSU | Top 25 Dre Mont Jones Jersey .

PHILADELPHIA -- Brayden Schenn and Jakob Chychrun punched each other so much they could have used a bell to stop the fight.Schenn would have at least settled for a whistle.With all eyes on the brawl, Martin Hanzal kept his on the puck and slipped it in the net to help the Arizona Coyotes beat the Philadelphia Flyers 5-4 on Thursday night to snap a five-game road losing streak.Schenn, a Flyers center, had no idea why the refs didnt blow the whistle during the scrum.Yeah, thats usually what happens when a fight starts, he said. I dont know if its a delayed whistle or not. I didnt even see the puck go in.Hey, neither did goaltender Steve Mason.Mason allowed Hanzal and Brad Richardson to snap a tie game with two straight goals in the third. Jamie McGinn, Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Ryan White also scored for Arizona, which has its only two wins this season against the Flyers.The Coyotes salvaged one victory on a season-long, six-game road trip.Dont kid yourself. Theres still a lot of work to do, Coyotes coach Dave Tippett said.Louis Domingue stopped 28 shots and won his first game of the season. He had been 0-4 with a 5.03 goals against average and had stopped only 85 percent of his shots.Schenn, Nick Cousins, Andrew MacDonald and Wayne Simmonds scored for the Flyers.Arizonas two straight goals in the third came in a bit of a bizarre manner.Schenn leveled defenseman Michael Stone and Chychrun quickly came to his defense. Chychrun and Schenn brawled against the boards as the crowd erupted -- and no one paid attention to the puck.I wasnt really paying attention to what was going on, Mason said. I was focused on the play coming at me. Whether there was a whistle blown or not, we still gave up a goal.Hanzal made it 3-2 and led to a few confusing moments as officials checked to make sure the goal was scored before the fight. Wildly cheering fans fell silent in a second when the goal was announced.I look at the monitor at my feet and you could see the one referee signal its a good goal, Tippett said. But then I dont know what the other one was doing up by the fight.Chychrun was tossed for instigating the fight.Richardson made it 4-2 on a goal that was reviewed because the Flyers thought hee ran down Mason.dddddddddddd Flyers defenseman Ivan Provorov took Richardson down and they went into the net together so the goal counted.MacDonald, having a miserable season, made it 4-3 but the Flyers were out of rallies.White scored an insurance goal late in third to send fans toward the exits. Simmonds scored with 14.3 seconds left.The Flyers again had to rally from an early deficit, a troubling theme for a team with playoff aspirations. The Coyotes led 2-0 in the first, the latest slow start for the Flyers. They have been outscored 8-1 in the first period this season and allowed the first goal for the seventh straight game.Coach Dave Hakstol hoped a line change would boost the Flyers offense. He moved 19-year-old rookie center Travis Konecny to the top line with Claude Giroux and Jake Voracek after that late-game pairing helped the Flyers come back from a 3-1 deficit to beat Buffalo.We needed a spark, thats why were trying something a little bit different, Hakstol said.The Flyers needed help early.Moments after they honored former great Eric Lindros -- in his No. 88 sweater -- another 88 got them with a goal.
