Quarterback Tyler Van Dyke has been brilliant since taking over for the injured D’Eriq King,.
The QB won ACC Rookie of the Week for the third consecutive week.
He can’t wait to get his first action against the Seminoles.
Van Dyke said, “Looking back at the history of it, that’s why I came here. That’s why a lot of people are here. It’s a great rivalry game. We’re definitely preparing like we haven’t before, working harder, preparing even better than we were the last couple of weeks, so we’re really excited to play FSU.”
Van Dyke said FSU has one of the best defensive lines that they’ve faced this season.
Van Dyke added, “It’s obviously FSU, we’re going to treat it different. We’re just going to go. They’re a good defense, it’s going to be a good challenge for us... We’re win a game, we’re going to try to win a game.”
The quarterback said the Canes have spent more time in the weight room and watching film.
He also said the team has been playing the FSU song so that the team is ready for the atmosphere.
