CHARLOTTE — New Florida State quarterback Tommy Castellanos made the most of the talking season that is college football’s summer tradition.In an interview with On3 in June, Castellanos talked boldly about FSU’s season-opening matchup against Alabama, saying, “They don’t have Nick Saban to save them. I just don’t see them stopping me.”Those strong words inspired some attention in Tuscaloosa and led to plenty of questions for the FSU quarterback Wednesday at ACC Kickoff ahead of the Aug. 30 matchup with the Crimson Tide in Tallahassee.”We stand on what I said,” Castellanos said. “There’s no disrespect (towards) that team or anything like that. It’s just the confidence that I have in my teammates and the way we’ve been preparing and putting this preparation together this offseason.”Castellanos transferred to FSU after spending the prior two seasons at Boston College. In 2023, the dual-threat QB was a sensation at BC with 2,248 passing yards, 1,113 rushing yards and 28 total touchdowns (15 passing, 13 rushing). In 2024, he didn’t adapt especially well to a new offensive scheme and left the team midway through the season after he was removed as the starter.Now Castellanos is tasked with providing a spark to an FSU team that struggled mightily in 2024, limping to a 2-10 record that was the program’s worst since 1974.”Being a part of Florida State is a dream come true,” Castellanos said.–Miller Moss excited to start at Louisville after bowl breakout vs. CardinalsThe best football game of Miller Moss’ career to date was a Louisville game. He just happened to be playing for the other team.The then-USC quarterback made his first career start in the 2023 Holiday Bowl vs. Louisville, throwing for six touchdowns and 372 yards. Moss is expected to be Louisville’s starting quarterback in 2025 after spending the past four seasons with the Trojans.”It’s kind of a random coincidence or full-circle moment, whatever you want to call it,” Moss said. “Fans will come up and say stuff to me (about the Holiday Bowl). I’ll just let them know that we’re going to make up for it this year.”
