SUNRISE, Fla. -- The Florida State Seminoles had a hunch even before they took the court Saturday they might be tested by Manhattan, and they were correct.Our locker room is right next to theirs, so we heard them before the game just yelling, Seminoles guard Dwayne Bacon said. We recognized they definitely had a lot more energy than we did in the first half.Bacon scored 12 of his 16 points in the second half to help No. 23 Florida State pull away for its seventh consecutive victory, beating Manhattan 83-67 in the opening game at the Orange Bowl Classic.Bacon took only one shot in the first half but embraced coach Leonard Hamiltons advice to help the Seminoles pull away after halftime.Coach Hamilton said I should just go to the middle and attack, said Bacon, chosen the games most valuable player for the second straight year.The taller Seminoles dominated inside, scoring 46 points in the paint, drawing 31 fouls and building a 36-23 edge in rebounds. They switched to a zone after the Jaspers shot 57 percent to trail 46-41 at halftime.A very tough game for us, Hamilton said. I thought they were well prepared. We had a hard time staying in front of them. They were a little quicker than we were in the first half. Second half we made some adjustments.The Seminoles (11-1) are off to their best start in school history, and the winning streak is their longest since 2012.Our team is still young, still growing, Hamilton said. Were very fortunate to be 11-1. I think we have a lot of room for improvement. This is a good game to learn from.The Seminoles have won in the one-day Orange Bowl Classic each of the past five seasons.Theyre a team thats hard to stop for 40 minutes, Jaspers coach Steve Masiello said.

Zavier Turner had 18 points and five assists for Manhattan (3-8), which hasnt beaten a ranked team since 1995.Three Jaspers had three or more fouls by halftime, and four finished with four fouls each, but Manhattans outside shooting kept the score from being even more lopsided.

I thought we righted a few wrongs with the performance at Hull FC on Saturday and bar a few poor decisions and tough calls from the man in the middle we should have come away with it, said Cunningham. For large portions of the game we were the better side but we came away with nothing other than a little polish on our pride. Phil Clarke previews this weeks Super League fixtures as he rules out a late Leeds Rhinos surge We had lots of opportunities even though we lost our half-back in the first minute.

But every one to a man did themselves proud.We started slowly but built into the game and scored some nice tries. We then had those chances but we got hurt and fell short. That said, it was a good performance. Now we have to build on that into this Fridays game.
