Cheez-It Bowl 2022 Preview
Florida State looks to finish with 10 wins for the first time since 2016 against Oklahoma in the Cheez-It Bowl on Thursday.
Once a perennial national power, the Seminoles hadn’t even won nine games since that year. FSU stumbled for years with 5-7 wins and one year with only three wins during a COVID-ridden 2020 campaign.
“I think that trust has been established throughout the year and throughout the last couple years,” FSU head coach Mike Norvell said via The Associated Press. “And so we know what it takes, and now we just have to go be the best we can.”
Oklahoma meanwhile will look to avoid a losing season for the first time since 1998 when the Sooners had a three-year stretch of losing campaigns. A win against the Seminoles could help the Sooners program avoid another dip into a slump.
“The bowl game is an opportunity to reward our team for their hard work,” Sooners head coach Brent Venables said via The Associated Press. “It’s been a challenging season, but I know one in which our players are looking forward to getting down to Florida and to Orlando and getting a chance to play in this great venue.”
Oklahoma will need to slow down Seminoles quarterback Jordan Travis, who has 2,796 yards passing and 22 touchdowns versus four interceptions this year. Travis also has 367 yards rushing and seven touchdowns.
When Travis isn’t touching the ball, running back Trey Benson is making plays. Benson has 965 yards and nine touchdowns this year. Travis throws to a wide variety of skill players, and wide receiver Johnny Wilson is the most dangerous of them all. Wilson has 36 receptions for 695 yards and five touchdowns.
Defensively, the Seminoles have talented defensive lineman in Jared Verse, who has 7.5 sacks, a fumble recovery, and 41 tackles this season. Seminoles defensive back Greedy Vance leads the team in interceptions with three, and he has two pass deflections and 16 tackles.
Sooners quarterback Dillon Gabriel will look to get his tea past the Seminoles defense. Gabriel has 2,925 yards passing and 24 touchdowns versus six interceptions. He can makes plays with his leg as he has five rushing touchdowns this season.
Running back Eric Gray can move the chains for the Sooners. Gray has 1,366 yards and 11 touchdowns this year. Wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. is a playmaking threat with 52 catches for 1,006 yards and six touchdowns this year.
On defense, the Sooners have a tough tandem in defensive linemen Ethan Downs and Reggie Grimes. Downs has 4.5 sacks, a fumble recovery, three pass deflections and 37 tackles this season. Grimes also has 4.5 sacks, and he has a forced fumble and 19 tackles. Defensive back C.J. Coldon, who has a team-high four interceptions, could also disrupt things against the Seminoles.
