TALLAHASSEE -- Freshman defensive tackle Jacobbi McDaniel, who has been the Seminoles' most effective interior lineman, was held out of practice Monday and might not make the trip for Saturday's game at Boston College.

McDaniel, who leads FSU's defensive line with nine tackles and three tackles for loss, was knocked out of the South Florida game with a right knee injury. And after watching film of the game, McDaniel was angered by what he considered a cheap shot by USF offensive guard Zach Hermann. On the play in question, South Florida quarterback B.J. Daniels had sprinted out of the pocket for a 7-yard gain and was already downfield when Hermann dove into the side of McDaniel's right knee.

Even if he makes the trip to Boston College, McDaniel said, he likely will only see limited duty.
