The defending national champion Florida State Seminoles will face their toughest test of the young college football season this Saturday night when they take on the Clemson Tigers in an ACC match up. However, for a good portion of that contest, they will have to go without the services of the reigning Heisman Trophy winner at quarterback, Jameis Winston, who has been suspended by the school on Wednesday for the first half.

On Tuesday, word began to spread around the twitter universe that Winston had stood up on a table on campus and shouted a phrase from one of the more popular memes on the internet, “F*** her right in the p****.” Reports were coming on twitter from multiple students who said that they saw the Seminoles quarterback committing the act, meaning that it more than likely did in fact take place.

During his teleconference on Wednesday, Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher was bombarded with questions from the media about this specific incident, and Fisher did allude to the notion that discipline for Winston would not be out of the question in this case.

Well, we learned just about an hour after the teleconference that Fisher was not lying, as he will now have to go the first 30 minutes against Clemson without his prodigy under center.

Just a short time ago, the school released this statement.

Last season against the Tigers was one of the first times the nation began to see the talents of Winston, as he shredded the Tigers’ defense en route to the team’s 51-14 win in Death Valley last year.

He might shred that Clemson defense once again on Saturday, but it won’t be until the final 30 minutes of the contest.
