Jordan Travis sends cryptic tweet after Michigan beats Alabama in Rose Bowl
Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis sent out a cryptic tweet after Michigan defeated Alabama 27-20 in overtime at the Rose Bowl.
The No. 1 team in the country advanced to the national title game while the No. 4 Crimson Tide, who got in over No. 5 Florida State, were sent home. Much was made about the Seminoles missing the playoff, although injuries and opt outs ultimately led to a 63-3 loss to Georgia in the Orange Bowl over the weekend.
Unfortunately, it’s a what-might-have-been situation for Florida State, if the team was fully healthy. Travis’ tweet can be seen below.
Melting face indeed. It really stinks to just think about “what if.” But, Michigan is off to the national title game, awaiting Texas or Washington.
Jordan Travis pens farewell to Florida State
On Saturday night, the Seminole great penned an emotional farewell to Florida State fans on his Twitter page.
“Thank you Florida State University. Thank you to my teammates and coaches. What a journey and I wouldn’t change a thing. Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened. God is great all the damn time,” Travis wrote on Saturday evening.
His season-ending injury stole headlines for plenty of reasons. But what he did beforehand, though, proved he could be a fun prospect for NFL general managers as the 2024 draft approaches.
Travis was in the Heisman conversation as he threw for 2,756 yards and 20 touchdowns across a little over 10 full games of action at Florida State. However, ESPN projects him as a possible Day 3 or undrafted free agent prospect — meaning he’ll have to open some eyes through the pre-draft process.
While doing a press conference for the Orange Bowl, head coach Mike Norvell took the time to praise his signal-caller.
“To touch on Jordan, just a special man,” Norvell said. “The example he’s been for our football team, the way that he’s grown, the work that he’s put in, the way that he approaches every day whether it was practice, meeting rooms, what he’s doing in the classroom, he approached every day as a champion.”
