In a stunning upset, Lipscomb University's basketball team defeated Florida State University (FSU) with a final score of 78-75 in Tallahassee. Lipscomb, ranked 167th in offense, managed to score 1.4 points per possession and led by 12 points at halftime. The Bisons significantly outscored FSU in paint points, contributing to the Seminoles' loss, which ended their conference play. There were expectations of a rejuvenated Leonard Hamilton leading FSU to be competitive in the league, but this defeat has sparked discussions about his potential retirement. FSU's record now stands at 6-6 after starting the season 4-1. The loss was a 'buy game' for FSU, and their failed comeback attempt has raised concerns about the direction of FSU's basketball program.
