Reviewing FSU’s loss at Alabama and where things stand through three games

Florida State fell to 1-2 after a 50-36 loss at Alabama despite jumping out to a strong start and producing its best offensive performance of the season. The On The Bench trio of Chris Nee, John Evans, and Kolby Crawford break down why FSU's defense struggled to slow the Crimson Tide's offense and whether the problems are rooted more in personnel or coaching. The discussion also covers encouraging signs from the offense and Sam Singleton's injury.
