WATCH: Three Seminoles Shatter The Rock After Florida State's Third Straight Win Over Miami

Florida State started off a stretch that includes two rivalry games in three weeks by dispatching Miami in Doak Campbell Stadium. The Seminoles built a 27-13 lead in the fourth quarter and did their part to hold on down the stretch. In the process, linebacker Kalen DeLoach led the team with ten tackles and two tackles while Jarrian Jones sealed the victory with an interception.

The defense held the Hurricanes to 10/30 passing for 204 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. One of those touchdowns came on a broken play that resulted in Jacolby George going 85 yards to the house. Take off another 25-yard completion and that means Miami finished with 94 yards on 28 other passing attempts.

Following the victory over the rival Hurricanes, a trio of Seminoles were honored due to their performances with the opportunity to break the rock. DeLoach and Jones earned the nod alongside redshirt junior punter Alex Mastomanno. The native of Australia averaged 49 yards per punt on seven attempts with five of those boots landing inside the 20. It was another masterful performance on what has been a stellar campaign for Mastromanno.

DeLoach leads Florida State with 59 tackles, 10.5 tackles for loss, seven sacks, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, one pass deflection, and one defensive touchdown. Jones returned against Miami after missing the previous game due to an injury. He finished with one tackle and one pick. Jones now has a career-high two interceptions on the season.

Keon Coleman earned the sledgehammer after scoring three touchdowns in his debut with the program against LSU. Trey Benson joined him the following week after recording a hat-trick of his own and broke another rock after rushing for 200 yards against Virginia Tech. DJ Lundy had the honor against Boston College following a performance that included an interception and a rushing touchdown. Linebacker Kalen DeLoach broke the rock after a game-changing forced fumble that he returned for a touchdown against Clemson.

Benson got another chance to swing the hammer with a 200+ yard performance in the win over Virginia Tech. Coleman joined him for another honor alongside Shyheim Brown and Adam Fuller after a total team performance in a blowout against Syracuse. Deuce Spann broke the rock after sparking FSU to a comeback win over Duke with a 99-yard kickoff return touchdown. Benson smashed his third rock of the season after recording an 80-yard receiving touchdown and going over 100 yards through the air in the win against Wake Forest. Ja'Khi Douglas got the opportunity to swing the hammer after catching a career-high six passes for 115 yards against Pittsburgh.
