From the EPR Creation Studio, this is the Unconquered Podcast. Hot Takes Edition after Florida State 31, North Carolina, 28, Florida State's first win over a top five team since winning over Notre Dame in 2014. It's been six years since Florida State had a win of this caliber. It's been a long time since Florida

0:21.7

States beaten a ranked team. I actually didn't check that, but it's been quite a while.

0:25.7

And yeah, this was a huge win for Florida State. And really, this was, if you're Mike Norvell,

0:32.2

this couldn't have come at a better time. And it is your proof of concept. It's your signature win. And every

0:39.1
