The Florida State Seminoles fell to the visiting North Carolina Tar Heels, 35-11, on Saturday at Doak Campbell Stadium.

It was their final ACC contest of the season, and the Seminoles (1-8, 1-7 ACC) suffered their third loss to the Tar Heels (5-4, 2-3 ACC) since joining the conference in 1992.

Florida State Quarterback Brock Glenn threw for 123 yards and one touchdown. Wide receiver Ja'Khi Douglas caught his third touchdown of the season.

Kicker Ryan Fitzgerald nailed a 56-yard field goal to improve to 10-for-10 on the season. The 56-yard kick is tied for the second-longest in Doak Campbell Stadium history.

The Seminoles will travel to Notre Dame next Saturday, November 9. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m. and the contest will be broadcast on NBC.
