KIDZ1STFUND

On Aug. 5, 2011, Jimbo Fisher and Candi Fisher launched their public battle against Fanconi anemia (FA) after their youngest son, Ethan (now 12), was diagnosed with the rare disease that spring. Kidz1stFund was created with the goals of improving treatment options, raising national awareness of the disease, and helping to fund research that will lead to a cure.

The returns on the hard work have been impressive as Kidz1stFund has given more than $4.5 million for FA research to the University of Minnesota's Fanconi Anemia Comprehensive Care Program.

The Fisher's commitment to defeating the disease is already showing progress for the families affected by the disease nationwide.

FISHER SETS HISTORIC PACE

*ENTERING 2017

?? In his eighth year as the head coach at Florida State, Jimbo Fisher has

authored one of the most successful starts to a head coaching career

in college football history. Fisher's 78 wins are the most in college foot-

ball history during a coach's first seven seasons, while his .821 winning

percentage is by far the highest of any ACC coach all-time.

?? Among active coaches with five years of experience, Fisher's 11.14 wins

per season average is the most of any coach in college football, while his

.821 winning percentage ranks second behind only Urban Meyer (.851).

FISHER VS. THE STATE OF FLORIDA

?? Fisher is 17-1 against teams from the state of Florida, including an incredible 13-1 versus FSU's two biggest rivals, Miami and Florida.

?? FSU has won seven straight against Miami, tied for the longest winning streak in series history (FSU, 1963-72). FSU has also won the past four against Florida, tied for the longest FSU winning streak in that series (1977-80; 1987-90).

?? Four of FSU's wins against Miami under Fisher have been by single digits, including a 20-19 win at Hard Rock Stadium last season. Only one game against Florida in that span has been decided by fewer than 10 points, a 24-19 FSU win in 2014. In fact, FSU has held Florida to a touchdown or less in four of seven games, something the Noles had done just five times in the 54 games before Fisher became head coach.

?? Fisher has also beaten USF three times and Bethune-Cookman in 2013. ?? FSU's average margin of victory vs. Florida schools is 16 points (32.8-

16.8).

2017 FSU FOOTBALL | GM. 4: MIAMI

GAME NOTES: MIAMI

BLACKMAN AIMS TO CONTINUE QB TREND

?? Freshman quarterback James Blackman will try and become the sixth consecutive FSU sig-

nal-caller to defeat Miami on his first attempt as the starter.

?? Last season, Deondre Francois became the ninth Seminole ? and fifth consecutive, all under

Jimbo Fisher ? to beat the Hurricanes on his first attempt (dating to 1989).

?? Blackman would join Christian Ponder (2008), EJ Manuel (2011), Jameis Winston (2013), Everett

Golson (2015) and Francois (2016) in the Fisher era.

?? Jacory Harris was the last Hurricane to win his first start in the series (38-34, 2009).

?? This will also be the first time since 1989-92 that FSU has started a different quarterback in

three straight games against the Hurricanes.

? Consecutive wins for Florida State against the Hurricanes, tied for the longest winning streak in series history (FSU, 1963-72).

RUSHING = WINS

?? Dating to the 1988 meeting, the team that rushes for the most yardage in the FSU-Miami series has won 22 of 30 games. That trend continued in 2016 when the Noles out-gained the `Canes on the ground 163-62 in a 20-19 victory.

?? Dalvin Cook finished off his third consecutive 100-yard rushing performance (27-150) against Miami last season to lead the way. It marked the second consecutive and fourth time in the last five meetings FSU has out-gained Miami on the ground.

?? The Seminoles have rushed for more than 200 yards four times in 10 meetings since Jimbo Fisher joined the FSU staff as offensive coordinator in 2007.

?? Florida State has won three times (2014, 2011, 2006) when being out-gained on the ground by the Hurricanes. Miami has five wins (2009, 2007, 2002, 2001, 1992) when being out-rushed by the Seminoles.
