TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- McKenzie Milton, playing in his first game since a catastrophic leg injury threatened to end his career nearly three years ago, led Florida State back from a 10-point deficit to force overtime against No. 9 Notre Dame on Sunday night.
"It was one of those bang-bang moments," Milton said of being told he was going in. "You just got to be engaged and ready to go on the sidelines. It was time to roll. I didn't really have time to process any of the emotions or things like that. A job had to be done to give us a chance to win the game, and just came up short."
After Milton made his first completion, Travis was eligible to return. But he was suffering through cramps, and the staff ultimately made the decision to stick with Milton. Travis said that was fine with him.
Milton suffered artery and nerve damage, as well as a dislocated knee and torn ligaments, when he was injured as the UCF starting quarterback against South Florida in late November 2018. His leg was nearly amputated as a result.
