Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis is a semifinalist for the top honor at his position in college football.

Travis on Tuesday was named one of 20 semifinalists for the Davey O'Brien National Quarterback Award.

The redshirt senior from West Palm Beach is Florida State's all-time leader in total offense and touchdowns for which he's responsible.

Travis has led the No. 4 Seminoles (10-0, 8-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) to 16 straight wins – the third-longest winning streak in Florida State history.

The former Benjamin School standout has thrown 20 touchdown passes and just two interceptions this season. He's also rushed for 160 yards and seven scores.

Travis became the first Florida State starting quarterback to win three games against rival Miami after the Seminoles defeated the Hurricanes 27-20 last weekend.

The three finalists for the award will be announced on Nov. 28.
