Florida State, Delaware State agree to play 10-minute quarters in blowout
Jasen Vinlove / USA TODAY Sports
College football's slate of matchups Saturday isn't the greatest, so much so that Florida State and Delaware State aren't going to subject fans to any more of their game than necessary.
With the Seminoles routing the Hornets by 50 points at the half, both teams agreed to cut the final two quarters short.
FSU up 56-6 on Delaware State at halftime, and both teams have agreed to play the third and fourth quarters at 10 minutes each.

This appears to be college football's version of the mercy rule.
