The Seminoles quarterback is putting his teammates first.
While the Seminoles were polishing off a 13–1 season that ended in an ACC championship and Orange Bowl berth, Uiagalelei was pilotingto an 8–5 campaign. He ended the season with 21 touchdowns through the air and six on the ground—near-identical numbers to his final season withjob in November. Given the chance to represent the Seminoles at the ACC's annual media days, however, Uiagalelei deferred to his teammates.
"I feel strongly that Florida State should be represented by player who were part of last year's ACC championship team," Uiagalelei said in a statement posted to social media. "This team is more than its quarterback, and I'm excited for my teammates who will experience this fantastic event."Patrick Andres is a writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated.
