Keon Coleman Reels In Two Touchdowns In First Half Of FSU Debut Against LSU

Playing alongside a talent like Johnny Wilson leaves Coleman in one-on-one situations with defensive backs. Though Coleman isn't 6-foot-7 like Wilson, he is still 6-foot-2 and more than capable of elevating for a big touchdown reception, as he did for his second touchdown of the night.
In this matchup, the Seminoles' offense has been quite stagnant at times, and the team has been unable to find a consistent rhythm. Both Wilson and Jaheim Bell have had some blatant drops, and the run game has been a non-factor. With this, the team has relied on big, electric plays to score.
While Coleman's second touchdown was electric in the sense of jumping over a defensive back and making an impressive catch, his first touchdown was on the ground, making defenders miss.
As the Seminoles trail LSU 17-14 heading into the second half, Florida State will need to find offensive rhythm somehow. The wide-open passes will need to be caught, and if the run game can't get going, Jordan Travis may need to pick up the slack on the ground.
